Iris pseudocorus grows well in Florida, at least around Gainesville. There
is a large pond with plants growing just by the National Biological Service
laboratories.
Someone suggested Iris versicolor would grow well there but it is very
straggly (at least the wild one we have abundantly in this area) compared to
virginica which is abundant in the wild in North Florida and has very
strong growth plus beautiful large flowers.
The other iris that seems to grow well around Gainesville are the louisianas.
