Anyone grow Spuria Iris?

Donna

I love iris foliage in borders (when it's in decent shape). The flowers are beautiful too. Beardeds, so far, are a washout, although I am trying Iris pallida and a couple of very old award winners this year. But, I am looking at Spurias too. Anyone grow them? What, in your opinion, are their pluses and minuses? Do I remember correctly from reading that they go completely dormant in the summer? Does the foliage look ratty for a good long while before this happens? How long does the bloom time last?
