Our season in South Australia was far earlier than any other year that I remember.

One of the most difficult species to grow ( my opinion  ;) ) is flowering now: Iris edomensis, a bit early too but we have a warm and humid weather at the moment. This species doesn't like water at all at the end of growing cycle, and need dry rest period for the all summer.

That is wonderful Fred and I'm sure TH at Kew would agree with you that edomensis is one of the most difficult. I don't know if he ever looks at this Forum but I'm sure he would be thrilled to see this fabulous iris in flower with you.

No Peter; I use to have 5 different plants but lost 2 this year, I think because of water...
But the plants seems to be very similar.
Fortunately, I have seedlings and I hope to get more seeds this year.
