I am also in Zone 9A and have been growing Tall Bearded Iris very succesfully for a few years, there are many people in this area that are also growing them...as a matter of fact there was an Iris grower here in Phoenix (Shepards Iris Gardens) for years - they retired and closed the business a couple of years ago unfortunately, but they were a very well known grower......and Margie here on the forum is growing/hubridizing beautiful iris in Tucson, AZ!

I can't tell you the name of your particular iris, but it does appear to be a Tall Bearded...you might want to check on-line or at local nurseries and buy a couple more this fall and give them a try!

Mine are planted in raised beds, full sun until 3PM, they are on drip system that handles them along with daylilies and roses in same bed......

Hope this is helpful!
