No chilling necessary, the seed is fresh so go for it.  I do soak my seed 
for a week then right into the seed raising mix.  As long as it is not 
allowed to dry out
you might see some germination by September.     JI's are so easy for us to 
grow here in Auckland.

Good luck,

Darlene

Thanks Darlene.  As the only Irises I grow are Iris ensata, it did look
familiar, but wasn't sure.  So that is great.

Would itbe a good idea to wait till spring for sowing?  Chill the seed
meanwhile?  Or sow now?
