The first time I got this iris from WeDu Nursery in NC....and when it got to
be a huge clump I divided it into single rhizomes....and each one proceeded
to die....obviously, this is an iris that must be divided in the early spring
and in clumps, not little pieces. The plant I have now was shipped to me by
a friend in Japan. It is a nice big clump now....but, it has not yet
bloomed. This iris has a reputation of being a sparce bloomer. Clarence

P.S. This iris makes a lovely bonsai subject, because it is so small and
delicate.
