    Colleen,
              CROWNED HEADS looked aweseome here in SC last year when one 
stalk froma  start bloomed, (I got three because I expected to love it, 
replaced INCANTATION)   BUT...when I had to move it to a large pot so we 
could remove trees here, it went REAAAAALLLY dormant, not one of the three 
rhizomes had leaves.    Now I think our climates are pretty opposite, withour 
 warmth and humidity in summer, mild but( lately) dry winters...am I right?
It'll be interresting to compare notes this bloom season.    And BTW,  check 
out
Keppel's brand spankin new WINTRY SKY, which looks to be a more intense 
darktop than even CH.    Irises are getting to be like computers, as soon as 
you have the latest model, a new better one comes out!    I will say that 
INCANTATION was a wonderful grower here, but not nearly the contrast I'd 
expected from pictures.   (Learned THAT lesson again).
              I'm so happy that my post on EW generated such a fascinating 
exchange, 
what fun on a dreary Sunday!!
