Re: dwarf beardeds rebloomers



I believe I'm in zone 3.  The most consistent rebloomer for me is Thrice =
Blessed.  It doesn't need the pampering that most rebloomers need.  I have =
not had rebloom in Refined yet but it's only been its location for two =
years.  It took me three years to get rebloom on Immortality -- and it =
actually rebloomed twice!

Walter,

I have GOLDEN CHILD.  It bloomed in waves this spring at (or above)
height for an SDB.  This was after a rebloom in December.  This WAS
an unusual spring, but this iris is obviously a preformer on the 7/8
border here in Texas.
