HYB: Rebloomer from 'Rosalie Figge' X aphylla

Hi Tom,

Your seedling looks like it has the best from both sides of its
parentage. 'Rosalie Figge' is a reliable bloomer (even here) and
the wonderful Iris aphylla genes are apparent allowing it to go
dormant (leafless) in winter. I always still wonder if my
aphyllas will emerge each spring but they are faithful.

this seedling first bloomed. I hadn't thought it possible that
it would be able to bloom again this Spring -- I didn't think
the increases were big enough. Well, someone told me not to be
so sure, and they were absolutely right. I threw together a
little webpage with pictures, if you'd like to see:
