Seed was easy, but I have moved it twice before it was happy.

ive moved my irises all over the place and found them to settle quite well again they seem to be very robust!
never grown from seed tho!

The Californian Iris are a bit prissy about being moved. I lost 2 moving them, but luckily had already taken seed as an insurance policy.

thank you for information :-) yes i can see why you have mentioned this after looking up about the care that must be taken when moving, wise decision concerning seeds, thank you.
