Yup, that's why when we change subjects on an old thread and keep going for ever it doesn't help. We should start a new thread with the new topic. Just a few iris pictures in the most thumbs pictures though, but nice ones.
Politicians are like diapers, they need to be changed often, and for the same reason.

Leslie - Diva Do is one of the first irises I got. It was from a vendor who has since retired (The Iris Fan). It's listed at Country Delights, Wild Iris Rows, Williamson Flower Farm, and a few other places. It was one of the irises that didn't get enough sun two summers ago and missed out on growth and blooming for a year. I'm hoping it will bloom this year.

Jen - I'm hoping to be able to do shares this year and could send you a piece. I'll add you to my list. That photo was taken with the late afternoon sun shining from behind so it really glows. Be sure to check the other pics in the database for a more normal coloring.

Barbara - I'll put you down for Mauna Loa Fire if you want it and if I have enough.

I don't know how much Mauna Loa I'll have, it's only been in the ground for a year. I'll put your names in order and see how far it goes.

Aril, I'll have some Private Treasure by Shoop too. I'll put your name next to it for now.

Marilyn ~ You have all those irises? They are all so pretty! Maybe you should start a new thread for this year.
