I've got Grosvenors book. I found it very useful in the beginning but now
I'm thinking about getting something more detailed. It's big advantage for
me is that it's Australian, it mentions our hybridisers and cultivars
available here. It seems to give culture advise on most of the various
groups of iris even if this is kind of cursory.
I guess whether its worth the price depends on what other references are
available there and how much they are, in my experience here everything else
is much more expensive.
Hope this is of help
