Reblooming
Iris in New Jersey
And
the winner is ... Unbelievable Love with
5 months of bloom!!
I
find it simply amazing that an iris can show flowers
in New Jersey for 5 months of the year ... but that
is exactly what Unbelievable Love (introduced
by Grise, 1998) has accomplished. In addition to bloom
in the
spring, this amazing clump (planted in July '08) started
reblooming
in July. Then August. Then September and into October ... The buds shown below
in 10/9 photo opened late October and lasted thru 11/8's
killing frost.

After frost, St. Petersburg tried 2x to send up additional
bloom stalks which never got to open.
