Art,

There are many iris that rebloom more than once.  John Weiler has a race
of SDB's that he advertises will bloom 3 times.  Spring, repeats and
blooms in the fall.  Also you should have Low Ho Silver.  It is almost
an everbloomer here.  It is up for the Sass medal and deservedly so. 
Sass medal is an AIS(American Iris Society) medal for the best
Intermediate in a particular year.  Many of Monte Byers Tall beardes
iris rebloom more than once also.
