Iris lazica x I. unguicularis

Does Iris lazica bloom over an extended season, or do the flowers come
mostly at once? The first two flowers to appear are fully formed now, and

I

see more buds pushing up. Can anyone give me an idea how long this will
continue?

There is no simple answer to this question, other than it depends on the
weather. I have some lazica (of both species actually) at home now that has
not yet tried to flower, so hopefully will later this month or next. It has
been a long cold winter. In other years this plant, against a south wall,
has started in November, rested over mid winter and then restarted through
until March/April. So here in a mild winter it is a long flowering season,
in a cold winter a short season.
