> #1-What is a median?
I have trouble with this one, because it seems to be defined differently in Australia than in the U.S.
I'm not sure of all the height limitations, but I consider Median to refer to all those irises which bloom in the season intermediate between the Dwarf beardeds and the Tall's.
Do SDB's fit into the Median category or not?
> #2-What is the difference between a PCI and a PCN?
PCN stands for Pacific Coast Native, and refers to species such as tenax, douglasiana, etc.
PCI stands for Pacific Coast Irises, and I consider this to include all hybrids of the various species.
I think the term PCH for Pacific Coast Hybrids would be a very useful one, but some may take it to mean Pacific Coast Highway, the Highway where one would expect to find Median irises growing along the dividing section. :-)
Cheers, Jan Clark, who should take time out to learn the height requirements for medians, since so many of my seedlings are IB's, or IB crosses.
