Mary Ann, since my blooms are all finished (except 2 or 3) I had to take the photos I had and crop them using iPhoto on my computer. They don't have the crisp detail of a picture taken with a macro lens. They are actually just snapshots taken with my cell phone (which is rather old and not the highest resolution).

Leslie, last year I got bitten by the iris bug and went out and bought over 300 iris varieties. Unfortunately in my enthusiasm I underestimated how much work it is to get bermuda grass out of the area I planned to plant them...so 2/3 of them are still living in pots and I'm desperately trying to get them in the ground. Ozone Alert seems to be doing well, but I have not had it long enough to really know.

And for those of you who measure iris craziness by how many you buy, well I'm sitting with another 32 on order...so far! Hilarious!

Thank You! to everyone for the welcoming comments!

Marilyn
