I wanted to share some of the updated pictures from Joe's 2019 intro's before we moved on to seedlings they were phenomnal this year so many good ones to pick from here I had a hard time choosing what to order will eventually have to get them all. I believe Mid America has all of them available if you happened to miss out on them last year.



Thread The Needle.. Loved the form on this one and the size it blooms lower so perfect for the front of my garden excited to see what the next generation will bring from it would love to start getting this form in more Plicata's hoping it will pass those wide falls and ruffles onto it's kids.



Santa Cruz Surf.. Another one I did my best to point out every year and convince Joe it needed a name very good garden impact beautiful stems and gorgeous in a clump it's on the list to work with in the spring.



Share The Love.. I have had a few good ones in this color range but nothing quite like this one it gets a 10/10 gorgeous flowers and wide falls very intense color close up and look what it does in a clump WOW !



Musicality.. My favorite of them all nothing else like it shows what's possible in form for the future and one I am thrilled to have at home for the spring to work with an exceptional Iris ! If you didn't get this one last year it is a must have ! Hoping we will have all kinds of colors and patterns with this form in the coming years Thanks to Joe's work !



Looking Cute.. This one really put on a show this year note the last picture of the row of it lined out everyone of them show stems I kept going back to it over and over again and telling him how much I liked it.



Powerhouse.. This one blooms on the late side very neat color and another for the front of the garden. Hoping to see more of it in the spring.



Heavenly Sign.. You can see from the pictures why it was selected very pretty color with matching hafts and show branching another Ghio special was told it was a very good parent as well for those who like to Pollen Daub.



Center Of The Universe..won't need a name tag for this one it really jumps out at you very cool flower it will be a hit all over the country once it gets out there.



Hat In The Ring.. Love Joe's Band's this one was on my order list have liked it for years.



Unfolding Dreams.. Very late bloomer it had 1 flower opening while I was there so pictures are from 2018 loved the color in it there were stalks showing everywhere as I was leaving. Hope to catch more pictures this coming May of it.



Supercharged.. My favorite of the Variegata's currently available very beautiful when lit up in the sun the red really pops in the falls you won't miss it in the garden looks like an amazing grower too should bring on instant clumps.



Clear Conscience.. This one was a 2018 intro but wanted to share the pictures of it was my most popular one of Joes at home the visitors raved over this one needs to be seen up close in the garden to really appreciate the impact just a masterpiece of color and form.I have some fun things at home but this one was special this year even the frogs were in awe of this one this guy made it his home for a couple days until I made him move as the flower was closing and I wanted my pod to set and as a bonus it is extremely fertile and will set pods everything I touched with it's pollen took this year.
