El, I've been growing Forever Blue and Velvet Toy for a number of 
years, but neither has rebloomed for me yet (at least not that I've 
noticed).  Blueberry Tart and Wizard of Hope are both new to my garden 
this year, so I am very much looking forward to seeing how they do 
here.  Autumn Jester is one I'll have to try to acquire.

I would LOVE to have more irises in my beds that will occasionally 
provide rebloom.  It is so wonderful to see little iris faces later in 
the season.
