I like Mr. Stout and his lovely irises...... and he sent me some exceptional bonuses last year.

Thro' all the tumult and the strife I hear the music ringing; It finds an echo in my soul— How can I keep from singing?

There were a few that I ordered but didn't get last year (they had flooding and lost some). Unfortunately none of them are offered this year.....

The number of Blyth and Burseen iris are way lower this year. But I love some of the introductions! Three already on my wish list. But I will have to wait for two of them since $55 is not in my budget.

I looked at the dwarf iris. Interesting information. I didn't know that either Bad Intentions or Love Bites carried plicata. We grow Bad Intentions. Lovely deep red on 'Frankenberry'.

I agree Lucy - Frankenberry is lovely.

Hi iris lovers!
Just wanted to let you know that, while we are updating inventory at Stout Gardens, those plants that we have to sale are hidden from view. It's the only way we can hold off orders until December 15th. On that date there will be mucho irises!! ;) (including a few more 2-16 intros and a few we lost in flooding.

I was wondering why there were so few new intros.. Looking forward to seeing them!

I too love Ancient Secrets. It sold out last year before I ordered, and I ordered in January!

I've had Ancient Secrets for about 6 years now, and it has bloomed once, and has increased to about 3 rhizomes. That's probably why it gets sold out so fast.
