That would be great! I think I should buy Fairy. It was scribbled repeatedly as one to "buy".

I got a lot of new ones this year, so it will be a while before they multiply. My old ones are Honorabile, Fabian, I. pallida and a dwarf I think is Manhattan Blue. I bought one to compare with later.

The new plants are

Argentea (I. pallida with variegated foliage)
Being Busy
Blueberry Tart
Bright hour (we think)
Candy Apple
Cat's Eye
Chanted
Cheers
Cherry Tart
Cottage Maid (Barr's)
Double Your Fun
Dusky Challanger
Edith Wolford
Florentina
I. Germanica
Gudrun
Indian Chief
Jewel Baby
Kiss Me Quick
Lent A. Williams
Little Dream
Loreley
Mary Geddes
Gypsy Queen
Rhein Nixe
Royal Eyelash
Skating Party
Snugglebug
Wabash (we think)
I probably forgot something.

The NoIDs: Rhizomes from the banking that have never bloomed since I moved here in 1997; rhizomes beginning to rot near the porch lattice that had one bloom similar to Fabian, but not; some probably Sir Michael Foster rhizomes similar to Caterina from looking at the eBay picture; some yellow, purple and Gypsy Queen looking rhizomes from a trade with a gal; the yellow, purple and bi-color purple irises we got off Craigslist - all 1000 of them. I also have some rhizomes I forgot to label, so they get planted in their own group. Sometimes I can tell what they are by their characteristics. The blue dwarfs have rhizomes that look like cat poo.

Don't make fear based decisions.
