This is my first growing season for my Siberian irises. I just wanted to
point out that the variety, INDY, has been the most outstanding siberian as
far as first year growth for me. I now have a clump of 12 fans from the 2
original fans which I planted last fall. I'm more than impressed by this
kind of increase and growth. Second runner up in the "growth trials" is
SWEET SURRENDER. Also I have what I think is an older, unidentified white
siberian that hit the ground running after being transplanted this June.
Apparently that are Siberians that will grow well in heat of the
southeastern U.S.
