Thank you, Linda, for your response.  Your points are well-taken, and 
I figured such information might vary widely depending on growing 
regions and garden conditions.  Clearly I should narrow and restate
my 
request.

I would be very grateful if those of you growing bearded irises in 
zone 5 or colder in acidic clay soil would identify any cvs which you 
have found to be rot-prone in your gardens.

Thanks!
