Occasionally, DC has pollen here, but I have never gotten it to set anything.
Perhaps, it is just as well.  How many really good irises has DC produced? I can 
think of the Dykes from Down Under called TEMPTONE.  It blooms earlier than DC, 
has a nice flower, but it grows too fast for me, and those huge blooms cannot open 
properly in a large clump.  Maybe, I should divide it every year.  It definitely will get 
divided this year.
