  How long is typical from sprout to 1st bloom in z5 gardens? (of course I
  know that depends somewhat on culture & how early they are transplanted
too)


  Debra,

  We're a warm zone 4 and a true zone 5 is only a few miles away. Most irises
(bearded and otherwise) should show bloom in 2-3 years after germinating.
Unless it's something very special, most will hit the compost if they don't
show me something at 3 years.
