I missed a couple of message in this line, so I hope I am not repeating
anyone. Last year
I noticed the same thing, TB's starting blooms deep in their fans before
the medians
and dwarf showed any sign of blooming, however, they take a long, long
time to actually
bloom, whilst the SDB's will bulge up and bloom within a couple of days.

a few irises over
the winter).
