I also grow LA iris (currently 37 varieties)--they do great here and mine will definitely suffer from sunscald if not mulched. I have added about 200 entries to the PlantFiles on LA iris. Here are some great and easy growing practices links for my favorite American native plant:

If you are looking to buy them--now is the time of year. They are usually shipped Sept-Oct. I recommend Zydeco Gardens; straight from the hybridizer Patrick O'Connor.
