Everblooming I. pallida - this and the next to have a carefree fencerow
iris that will always bloom no matter what.
Everblooming I. germanica
Everblooming SHAH JEHAN
Everblooming DUSKY CHALLENGER
Everblooming VANITY (or maybe something nearly like it with slightly
smaller blooms).
Everblooming WABASH.
And ditto for HARVEST OF MEMORIES - maybe with SLIGHTLY less stiff
form/more arched falls.
That list could go on forever for colors, but I am still looking for
oncers in most colors that have the carefree growth of I. pallida here,
so looking for rebloomers seems out of the question.
By everblooming, I mean repeat bloom throughout MY growing season, or at
least as repeat as IMMORTALITY is here, which at her best, was 5 times
one season. So far, nothing showing hints of rebloom, in spite of
fairly damp season. Unbearably oppressive humidity till the last few
days tho, & it seems I remember Mike Sutton saying those were the
conditions under which they have less rebloom? About got the weeds in
some areas under control & the irises look super again. Those that
survived spring anyway.
