I think so too Mary Ann, and the price went down this year so I just HAD to buy the little guy! If he grows as fast as the other two Stout dwarfs I have, then I will have some to share with you soon.

Please note everyone that I actually bought two Burseen's that DON'T have horns/spoons/flounces. Can that really be right? Hee. I did get a Black with horns though to make up for it. Hilarious!

Okay - Both Hoptoit and Ice For Brice are on sale, and they are similar in color. Both are Burseen space agers. Does anyone grow both? Does one do better than the other? Am I going to have to buy both to find out? Help me out here fellow iris "enthusiasts"!

Greg - was just abbreviating. Figured you would know which one just by Do You See.

Marilyn - I hadn't either, and am happy to be getting a SA in bright colors. So many are muted. I have his Mercy Marci and Glitter Glutch too so they will be a little bright spot in the "spoon" garden!

I sent off my order to Matthew's Iris Garden Saturday, and have my Bluebird Haven order ready to send as well. So far it's;
Superstition 12
Matthew's 24
Bluebird 12

3 orders, and I'm over my "self imposed" limit already !! Sticking tongue out ! I still want to get a 'few" from Winterberry, and, I'll no doubt get a few from the HIPS sale.
