You  might wish to start at:

<http://www.irises.org/index.htm>

<http://www.worldiris.com/public_html/level1/TOC.html>

Plenty of  links there, too!


And then try (explore completely) 
 
_Reblooming Iris - Home Page_ (http://www.rebloomingiris.com/index.htm)  
 
On the AIS  site (above) go to links.  Both private and commercial links will 
keep you  reading for days.  Several of the AIS Regions have excellent 
websites. Some  sites, like Schreiners, have sections devoted to breeding tips.  
 
Catalogs from breeders are good sources for current information.  Read  them 
cover to cover.  Often, important information is tucked into the  
descriptions.  
 
Also: Even if you never want to be a judge, buy both the 'Judges Hand  Book' 
(AIS Storefront) and 'The World of Iris.'  Excellent  sources at rather 
reasonable prices.  If you breed irises these are the  standards they will be judged 
against.  
 
Once you've some idea of what you want to work toward . . .  then sign up 
($10.00/yr) for the online iris register that has the  parentage/linage of most 
irises.
