Add another 160 miles south of Memphis. When I lived in
Starkville, MS, I had no trouble growing and blooming siberians. I am now
70 miles south of Memphis and have increased the number of siberians I
grow and even have siberian seedlings. PCN's are about the only things in
the iris world I cannot grow.
