As a comment about Pacific Coast Iris (Iris 'Silver Moon'), Polymerous wrote:

I recently discovered this unregistered PCI iris, being sold by Sequim Rare Plants. http://sequimrareplants.com/Ir... After I ordered it, I did another search and discovered a different nursery *also* selling a PCI with the name "Silver Moon", but their image and description differs from that of the first nursery. http://www.yerbabuenanursery.c... A third nursery also carries a PCI "Silver Moon"; their image and description appears to match that of the second nursery. http://www.goldrushnursery.com...

So it looks like there are (at least) two different PCIs in commerce going under the (unregistered with the AIS) name of "Silver Moon".

I got an email today from Sequim Rare Plants, in response to my query re this iris (and my pointing out that it looks different from the "Silver Moon" sold by Yerba Buena Nursery. They said that they got it "about ten years back" (circa 2008) from Cistus Nursery near Portland, Oregon. They said that it is "quite vigorous".
Evaluating an iris seedling, hopefully for rebloom
