SIGNA and seeds

Odyssey Bulbs is a great source:
http://odysseybulbs.com/iristomoraea.html#iris
They carry several species of Junos & Arils, as well as some hybrids.
The Aril Society International holds a seed exchange in autumn each year
(Northern Hemisphere's autumn): http://arilsociety.org/index.pl?Seed2013
They're sold out this year, but you can see the selection anyway. ASI also
has a plant sale in summer, if you prefer to get rhizomes instead of seeds.
There is a big listing of nurseries selling modern hybrids. Some will have
pure species too. Check the list here

Dear James,
Good morning!
I was thinking to start Aril and oncocyclus, Juno Iris collection. The
weather here is perfect here, but I have not seen them.
I checked the web page. I found only two available aril seeds. Do you
know any source to find the bulbs or seeds in the US?
I was thinking to order from Lithuanian Rare Gardens next year.

Dear Friends,
Most of you know about SIGNA (Species Iris Group of North
America), a section of the American Iris Society devoted to wild species or
Iris and their selections. The annual seed list was just published recently
including some donations from PBS. It is available on line at
http://www.signa.org/index.pl?SeedList Although you must be a
member to purchase seeds, membership is as little as $6/yr and has other
benefits.
The current seed list has around 50 non-Iris members of the
Iridaceae including many choice items of interest to PBS including some
rare Gladiolus, Romulea, Sisyrinchium and others.
Please visit the site, read about ordering and enjoy the bounty.
Glad to answer any questions. Best Jim W.
