Given this voodoo of the "germination inhibitors" we cannot

The three times I have planted iris seeds outdoors in the
fall, they have come up the following spring as if they
arrived on a bus, most emerging within a day for each
different species or variety planted.
The one time I tried planting dried seeds of an iris
(setosa) in the spring, planting as early as I could get
them into the ground---- the seeds emerged over a more
extended time.
