I agree and I noticed 6 daylilies in the most popular pictures, and not one iris! All of those nice pictures posted by Kent and others and not one got enough thumbs to be recognized. I wonder why that is? Confused

& to me many daylilies look the same. Even in our own garden. Of course there are diffidences, I only bought the ones which were market for cold temperatures I forget the type, it has been so long.

Not for my lack of trying. I have added several, I mean several to my wish list due to Kent's pics and have been thumbing them. Can't believe others aren't but then, the pics don't show if you are responding on your phone.....

Me too, Leslie. Haven't added anything to my wishlist (which is plenty long, thank you very much) -- but thumbed most of Kent's pictures. Shrug!

I'm glad that we're not 'required' to divulge how many iris PLANTS we have.....as many of my cultivars grow in *several* places, around the property Rolling my eyes. ! It's rather *strange*, that when I dig a plant, for division, or "sharing", I find it VERY hard to discard the "crumbs".....those spent mothers, disfigured, or super small daughters, or even the ones shot full of borer holes, and affected by rot..........I just can't seem to help myself, and pretty soon......there are two, or three (or maybe more Sticking tongue out )places where it's growing !


Me too! I will definately have to start giving away some, but this year I added a
cemetary of sorts on a corner of ground, for all the teensy weensies that I would have thrown away, just for research, you know!
This year I added more to my collection than I had thought to as it is becoming too hard and time consuming to take care of the gardens I have. Right around 100 I think, plus any bonuses that I didn't add up.
