Mesilla Valley Iris Society in Las Cruces, NM normal peak TB bloom date is April. However, last year we saw irises blooming from February through the beginning of December. The months which are usually devoi= d of reblooming irises are January and July.&nb= sp; July is usually sparse of blooming irises due to the 100° temperatures in June. However, in 2009 Daughter of Stars, Double Your Fun and Sugar Blues rebloomed during= this month. Daughter of Star= s and Speeding Again win the award for the most rebloo= ming months. Speeding Again made i= ts first showing in Steve’s garden in February, 2009 and then bloomed in March, April, June, November and December.= He planted his Speeding Again in rock mul= ch right next to the south side of his house.= This combination led to warmer temperatures that allowed it bloom exceptionally early. Eloise s= tated that Autumn Encore and Midnight Caller put on the best show in her garden.<= span style=3D'mso-spacerun:yes'> Daughter of Stars was beautiful in multiple places. Scarlett unf= ortunately had 2.5 inches of hail in early September.= The irises leaves were like Dow Jones stocks that you would like to own. The hail caused the leav= es to split, split and split again. &= nbsp; However, despite the shredded leaves and being encased in ice for a night, Double Shot and Rosalie Figge provided a lovely showing this fall. Pur= e As Gold bounced back to bloom the day after Thanksgivi= ng.
