Does anyone know of anywhere I can get some? I suggest that you acquire seed from one of the many specialist societies, among which are... 1. Alpine Garden Society (UK) 2. Scottish Rock Garden Club 3. North American Rock Garden Society 4. Species Iris Group of North America (SIGNA) 5. Hardy Plant Society (UK - at one time and possibly even now a good source for seed of highly developed garden forms) Pacific Coast irises are very easy from seed, and reach flowering size within a few years. -- Rodger Whitlock Victoria, British Columbia, Canada
