Hi Janet,
I can't believe that Rosalie Figge isn't that purple you are
looking for. All of us here in Region V have consistent
spring and usually late 0ctober rebloom. Violet Music
is also a lighter in the purples that is consistent. I
concur with your others. Feedback, Belva Queen,
Corn Harvest, and you know how I feel about Lady
Emma which is a consistent almost everbloomer for
me. This spring it seemed like all I saw were TB's
with lavender, purple and white, or purple. Penny Lane
was my best first year bloom and a favorite. Another,
Golden Panther, bloomed but not quite like I expect,
and of course that was first year also. I have not had
what I considered a great iris bloom season except
for arilbreds and out of about 25 at least 20 bloomed.
Until several years ago I didn't think I could even grow
arilbreds. Several have been great! 0ne went to the
Queens table (Desert Plum) and helped me win a
bronze medal at our spring show.
However a number of rebloomers you mention (Harvest
0f Memories) and others are not consistent for me and
we should have about the same soil and other similarities.
I did miss seeing a lot of my iris bloom because of
travelling. My husband took some pictures which are
being developed and I should see soon.

all my rain barrels again. They were almost empty!!!!
