Can't speak for California -- on the East coast Polar King (Donahue 39)
throws a bloomstalk whenever it matures a rhizome. It is unique in having
been introduced seven years after winning an Award of Merit and is also the
first TB introduced as a rebloomer to win that award.
It has poor substance -- but in July who whines about substance!!!
I posted a list of suppliers of Historic iris on 3/21/96 -- it can be
found in the archives -- subject is Re: Catalogs.
