John, these are sold by AIS.  You may contact Irv and Nancy Pocklington whose 
address and phone number are on the AIS website under "AIS Storefront"

names? I know they are not species. Are they  types, cultivars, varieties, 
etc.>
 
 Although lots of irisarians refer to them as "varieties", in actuality they 
are "cultivars".  The garden club folks around Louisville are trying mightily 
to get us to change our ways about this, and I suspect this is probably a 
nationwide drive!

Judy Hunt in Louisville, Kentucky, Zone 6 (really more like 5b), where a few 
Siberians are still in bloom, but we're looking forward to the Japanese and 
Louisianas.
