(Down the block)  For me, this is rebloom.  If it grew in the same general 
area it counts.  I started to state that as the general opinion of a rebloom 
hybridizer, but I'm learning!  It's only my opinion.  Other rebloom 
hybridizers, being individuals, may have a very different viewpoint.  

<<or across the country>>

To me, this is not local rebloom.  However!!!!!  Living, and breeding 
reblooming irises, where I do, I'm thrilled to hear of any rebloom, even 
sporatic.  If an iris reblooms anywhere, it can be valuable in my hybridizing 
program AND I want to hear about it.  BUT . . . If I were a collector only, 
my feelings would be different.
