Anyone out there that I promised an iris (or two, or a boxful, whatever) that hasn't heard from me in the last week ,or 10 days............T-mail me to "remind" me ! I *think * I have every one that was promised something, all lined up.....some sent out, some *drying*, and some awaiting an energy spurt, on my part, to do more digging ! Keeping up, on four different forums, and dealing with about 800 cultivars.....sometimes gets me a *bit* confused Sticking tongue out ! Anyway.....let me know if I've missed you ! Thanks.....Arlyn

I don't know how you do it, Arlyn -- I'm sure I couldn't.

You'll be glad to know that you don't owe me any!! Green Grin!

Hilarious! I think. Blinking Because that would be enough for it's own driver/planter needed.
