jpm995 said: I'm waiting for 10 'dinner plate' Japanese Iris's from Breck's along with Siberian iris 'So Van Go'. Hopefully some will bloom this season.


Breck's has beautiful catalogs. I just wish the quality of their plants matched up with the pictures. Let us know when you receive the order if they look good (or not). Also be sure to make good labels to see if they bloom as advertised, as some of us have received the wrong ones from time to time, though I do not order from them any more. Of course, if they don't bloom the first year, be double-sure regarding good labels.

When I first started gardening, so many years ago, I used to throw the labels away. I thought they detracted from the plants and the overall look. But if you are building a collection, you will need good labels.
