Iris louisiana

Pieter,

if the plants are new arrivals from the opposite hemisphere, they may well
bloom out of season.  I have experienced this with plants imported from
Australia.  They have never repeated this performance and since bloom as
expected, in the Spring.  Possibly, one could induce Fall blooming in a
greenhouse with adjusted light.

For reference, the plants were sent to me in my Spring, the Autumn in
Australia.  They adjusted to my garden during the Summer and about 30% then
produced spikes in September.  These plants did not bloom the following
Spring.
