A flower spike on a bearded Iris, started to flower Nov 5th. Dec 2nd, Will this open before the frosts destroy the
blooms?

Yes Steragram, there are several on the market with differing shades of blue although I have none.
The flowers on My yellow Again and Again (above) got frosted on 15 Dec before opening. Also my Istanbul yellow and purply suffered the same fate, so I have seen neither flower, only squashy buds. What a silly time of the year to start flowering!! I will not deliberately buy any more remontants!
For your info:-
Midsummer Nights Dream, a dark blue, AM 2003 (award of merit)
Blue Suede Shoes, a paler blue, Am 2000.
Autumn Circus, a bluey/purple plicata.
Good luck to you if you try reflowerers!
