"I can speak to the quality of rhizomes from Riverview Iris Gardens"
I'm glad to see this comment, Arnold. I used to live in the county
next north of Riverview and had similar soils, water, climate. It
spoiled me! Bearded iris are in hog-heaven with limey, desert soils,
plentiful high-quality irrigation water, dry air, intense sun from
Easter to Thanksgiving---absolutely ideal growing conditions.
If I could just take a pair of pruning shears to the calender and
remove everything after Christmas and before Palm Sunday, I'd have
the world's second most perfect climate for bearded irises--San Jose
to Monterrey, CA takes first prize, I suspect.
