Raising several thousand seeds of year for a living, I find just get a good book on iris. Different types may or may not need chilling to sprout. If you are interested in iris there is an excellent American Iris Society. They have a section just devoted to raising species. You can buy farm raised iris from all over asia without problems. They should include a phytosanitary certificate to prove the plants have been inspected and declared disease free.Good luck -Russ Hintz
