I just love Irises! They remind me of my grandma who took special care of hers. She had a variety that grew 4-5 feet tall. She dug them up every fall and planted them again in the early spring (I'm not sure why she did this, we didn't live in a harsh climate). My first landlord cultivated Irises for competition and created several new colors. These are the best smelling flowers; not too perfumey or over powering, just a nice clean fresh scent.
