About: Tall Bearded Iris (Iris 'Persian Berry')

I have a question about Persian Berry...some vendors call it a rebloomer and others don't...
Does it rebloom?

Mine has never rebloomed. As I understand it any iris can rebloom. Was it advertised as a rebloomer? You could fertilize a month after bloom with something like 6-9-6. See if you get another bloom. Just keep the first number low. No higher than 10. That is for the percent nitrogen.

Thank you KatsI2.
Yes, it has been advertised as a rebloomer by some vendors. Probably it only reblooms in very warm climates, I think I read it reblooms in zone 9.
In that case my chances to get rebloom are null

One must watch the zone on rebloom. I didn't know that my BB 'Hi Buddy' could rebloom until it was listed as such in TX & now at the NM garden in Las Cruces. Certainly not here in MA or where it is introduced in VA.
