Carol, I knew that Blue J was moving down to Texas, but I somehow (perhaps naively) thought that they would be moving their nursery stock with them. Good job on calling them and getting the scoop.

Btw, I agree with Evelyn that you need to steel yourself for what you get from Blue J Iris. The roots are trimmed, but more than that, the rhizomes are really very small. I have to wonder if that is (at least part of) the reason behind the move - so they can have a longer growing season (and thus bigger rhizomes).
Evaluating an iris seedling, hopefully for rebloom
