For tall beardeds I've had good luck from both Cooley's and Schreiners. I
haven't found
anyone yet for Siberians or Japanese, but I understand that Draycott Gaardens
is suppossed to be good. Another good source is the local iris society. Most
have
an annual sale in the summer and it gives you a chance to talk to a lot of
crazy iris
people. THey're more than happy to advise and since the iris come from their
own
gardens you know that they are acclimatized to your zone.
Good Luck
