Say it is so again, Mike....I have had only IMMORTALITY rebloom
here in Zone 3a and the two stalks had to be cut for an impending
frost the beginning of Sept. Only one flower opened in the house. :(
I have had rebloom in Aug. of SDBs and MDBs and some Siberians and
a few Japanese irises. I do have so-called TB rebloomers like
CLARENCE, CANTINA and TOTAL RECALL, etc. but they sure don't like
to rebloom here in the cool mountains.
If you have a list of named TB cultivars that have successfully
rebloomed in Zone 3, please send it along to me. Sign me
salivating in anticipation. Oh, Siberia gets as cold as we do but
we generally have an earlier frost. Hmmmmm.
Cheers,
Ellen
