Iris By Continent? was OT: new web site

When I was looking at Colleen's site (loved it!) I noticed many names I wasn't familiar with and I got to wondering if many irises stay where they're originated or if they can pretty much be shipped worldwide? I realize that it certainly is possible with expedited shipping to actually get an iris from one place to another, but is it routinely done? Is it so expensive that very few people bother? With Australia, is it difficult because their seasons are opposite ours?

I'd sure love to hear more from our southern hemisphere members about how their gardens are coming along. It's getting way too close to winter here and although I have to replant my iris almost every day because the deer are too stupid to remember they don't like them and have to try one or two each night just to drop them on the ground again. When will they ever learn? If these iris survive, it will be a miracle. Hunters welcomed.
