It's official. I have lost Arthouse.
She was planted in the fall of 2012, she bloomed in the spring of 2013, she died in the winter of 2013/2014. There were no increases, the mother rhizome was fully rotted out. I can't hardly stand it -- I think I was more excited about that Iris than anything else in my garden last year. And the location for her was great -- she was planted nearby to the beautiful NOID red Irises that Tom sent to me, and they are doing GREAT! Lots and lots of healthy increases -- each of those rhizomes will be a clump this year.
Go figure.
RIP Arthouse:
Anybody have a healthy clump of Arthouse that they can spare a rhizome from this year?
