Pacific Coast Iris are very picky about where they will grow. It is very hot here for them.

Since I've moved to Northern California it gets really hot here in the summer. One year it got to 119. We were the hottest place in the nation a few times in 2015. I wonder if it's the heat and humidity combination?

I am pretty sure it is the humidity that makes them wilt. That is also why Arils don't do well. We can grow 1/4 and 1/2 Arils but the full Aril likes it dry. I think the Pacific Coast like the cooler breezes off the coast too over heat.
