Wow, you guys don't waste any time getting those orders in! Rolling on the floor laughing I checked their website before dinner last night, and it hadn't opened yet. Oh well, I have a list of 11 intros that I want so bad, but I have to be reasonable and whittle that down a bit. (8 TB's and 3 of the little ones.) I think. I don't want to, but I should. Maybe I can, but I shouldn't. Oh, what to do. I would qualify for a 30% discount though, so that would save me about $175. I have to think on that a while. Maybe if I wait a while they will sell out of some and I won't have to make the cut myself. I'm so hopeless. Crying

flattie!

This order is all Tom's fault! If he had not posted THIS picture last year, making me WANT that iris I could have been peacefully oblivious to Mid-America's going ons! Whistling

And I blame this on that Lines and Stripes thread! Glare

This one too! Glare Glare

I blame myself for this one! Glare

Leslie, I take full responsibility for my enabling actions. Rolling on the floor laughing I like Baby I Love you a lot, but it's similar to Sofia that I have.

It looks to me like any irises that are not new releases count for the bonus irises. They are good about giving extras too, depending on the size of the order.

Wow they are giving great bonuses this year. With the $ so low I don't think I will order from the U.S. this year. I don't have a lot of room and I have a small order with Ted Baker on Salt Spring Island here in B.C. and I have some seedlings that will bloom for the 1st time this year. :)

Yes it does Jan. Another Iris Lover from this region wants to go visit the island in May to see Ted's irises. I would like to go but I am going to Vegas at the end of April to celebrate my husband's and my son's birthdays, 50 and 21 respectively. Last year I was at the Oregon AIS convention in May so this year I want to stay at home and see all my iris as they open.

There are so many irises I would love to have from Mid America. I haven't updated my list from last year on here as I wanted to wait and see how many of my iris survive the winter first.
