I understand that thinking Linnea, it is most of the other buyers that concern me. They buy what to them is a beautiful iris named XXXX, grow it and instead of XXXX, it is 0000. So they trade it as XXXX, sell it as XXXX and generally a family, club, neighborhood or any group grows 0000 but have it labeled as XXXX. If all buyers had your knowledge that they were just getting a beautiful iris and that it will be a surprise NoID when it blooms, that would be ideal. Perhaps that is why some of the iris databases have such varied photos of the same iris. I know that some iris look different because of soil and climate but some of the photos I see I just have to say, no way!
Thro' all the tumult and the strife I hear the music ringing; It finds an echo in my soul— How can I keep from singing?
