Has anyone successfully added any of the Lowes Iris devices to the InControl Z-Wave network? I am using an Aeon Z-Stick as the controller.

Depends on the device. The light switches (GE/Jasco) and the thermostat (2GIG) are Z-wave, and I'm using both currently on my network.
The Iris branded door & window sensor, smart plug, and motion sensor are all reportedly Zigbee devices.

I bought a bunch of the GE branded Iris stuff at Lowes, you can't beat the price - $35 for switches in mine. They are Jasco.

I did the same thing but now I regret using the iris switches. The dimmer in that series is terrible. It does not work with the 40W dimmable LED bulbs I use and it buzzes like crazy when you use incandescent bulbs.
I found a company with similarly priced switches called EnerWave and their dimmers are great. Be aware that the jasco switches have a slightly blue tint to them so color matching can be a problem.
