Rob, 11 is a good start! Get the shovel out and start your new beds for next year! lol, cause that list will be much larger by then! Worst part is that you spend all winter adding iris to the list, then the new introductions come out and you have to add a bunch of them too. Before you know it you have 50 to 100 new additons. Then you start trading with the fiends you meet on here, and you have to add another bed. The fun never stops. I already have a good start to next years list, but really wish I had gotten All Smiles, Golden Panther and Noble Gesture this year. Then you have to find space for the new seedlings. A friend I met on here gave me some seeds, and they grew! On top of that, I got the bug to make some crosses this year, and have a bunch of seeds to plant this winter and will have to find room to plant them next year. I have about 23 acres here, and if I don't watch out I'll have a jillion irises. I did manage to cull out some this year. Maybe 10 or so. Like they say, there could be worse addictions to have. You might be able to identify some of your NOIDs in time. Good luck!
