  • Posted by diggit (southeast Indiana - Zone 6a) on May 18, 2013 9:17 AM concerning plant:
    Vigorous grower in Indiana. A trait not mentioned often enough among iris growers. There's nothing wrong with telling it like it is on a given cultivar. I hate to purchase a plant and wait four or five years to get an increase or a bloom.
