Patient or too lazy to move them, lol. I have 23 Acres here, so space is not the issue. I think some irises are meant to be for warmer climates, and others seem to like it cold. It makes for happy iris growers in all cllimates. It's just that I really like some of these irises, and wish they would grow better here. If iris are developed in a certain environment, there's some potential for them to become dependant on that climate. Having bred paint horses for many years, I know how important it is to not just breed for one characteristic. One has to look at multiple characteristics when choosing crosses. Other wise you end up with a cripple that has nice color. Kind of like politics, if you vote for morons because of a single issue, you can end up with a pretty disfunctional government. (Did I Say That?????) nodding
Politicians are like diapers, they need to be changed often, and for the same reason.
