happen in the garden. 5 of the Schreiner rhizomes planted end Sept
1996 flowered between December 1996 and Feb 1997. This is
mid to late summer in South Africa. SKY HOOKS, CONJURATION AND
SCENTED BUBBLES bloomed in December and BEVERLEY SILLS AND VISION IN
PINK in February. If the rhizomes thought they were still in
Oregon would this be considered re-blooming? Or do they know they
are in South africa and are late bloomers? Are those particular
iris supposed to be rebloomers? Not grumbling - just delighted but
curious. My ubiquitous purple (friend says it could be Cocky)
blooms any time it feels like and is busy doing so right now. >
