Sounds reasonable to me.
The guest chair could ask each contributing hybridizer if there were
any objections to having iris grown in pots, explaining the situation.
I bet that few would object. If any did, those iris would go elsewhere.
Like others, I would be very interested in seeing such a container-grown
garden.
