But if one iris breeder is selecting under one set of conditions and another breeder selcting under another set of conditions, selection for better germination is inconcistant, and it is small wonder that some lines don't germinate well.
Especially when there are are several species with diverse origional climates involved.
For now, we need to learn from each other what works, as we are doing here. And do what works for us with our lines in our climates.
As we compare different lines in different climates, we'll make progress, or those who come after us will, progress both in iris for the public, and for iris that are easier to start from seeds.
