Robert,
Welcome to Iris Talk. I would suspect that some Louisiana Irises
would grow on Hawaii. We have a member who used to live in Hawaii.
Hopefully, he can help you some.
You mentioned African Iris. This is not a "true" Iris, but is a
member of the Iris Family. African Irises should do great for you.
They are very popular in Florida. There is a white form with some
purple and yellow on the blooms, and there is a yellow form with maroon
blotches. Both are pretty.
Two other members of the Iris Family you may wish to try is
Neomarica and Trimezia. Neomarica has purple/white blooms. Trimezia is
yellow with brown speckles. Both should be available in Hawaii.
Since you like Daylilies, you may wish to check out my small Web
Site at http://daylily.net/gardens/tallpine.htm This is a private
garden. Also, you could consider joining Hem-Gathering, which is also
on Onelist.
