Thank goodness for odd ducks. :-)  She always blooms heartily in
June (our spring) and than again in Sept. (usually at frost
time) as I wrote previously. 

Maureen and Rosalie both mentioned not dividing unless clump is
too crowded (at least I inferred that). I rarely need to divide
since increase is so slow in my climate but I have to divide
some TBs and medians this year...mainly from Walter Moores who
must use steroids on his irises.  

IMMORTALITY is not mulched here or watered except for our steady
rainfall... we just let it be. This is my second IMM. - they
both did the same silly thing. I planted it in July and it
bloomed as the weather got colder two months later. It barely
knew us. :-) The former one came from Superstition Gardens..this
one came from Schreiner's. This is a cold-weather lovin' TB.
