What conditions does this one grow under? I have it and like it very well.
But I've found it is a rare iris that seems to prefer the heat and dry
summer rather than a more congenial spot. I discovered that by switching
places with another. Neither liked the switch. Most of my irises prefer
the richer soil with some break from the sun. I think ROYAL TARA has been
the single exception to the rule. It grows and blooms well for me, but not
aggressively. Nice plant.
