They're posted in the MBIS website, but he may just be in the process of doing it because there is one with no picture right now, plus he usually has more than are showing right now. But maybe he's downsizing too...

Love YOURS TRULY!

They're all beautiful, but I would pick *Emblematic* and *Oil Painting*.

Betty Thanks !!! I have been waiting to see his and a few of those were favorites from his garden.

Core Values

I found some pictures of a few of these from the spring and I like them all, but my favorites so far is Oil Painting and Otherside Of Heaven

Core Values


Yours Truly


Oil Painting


Emblematic

Love "Core Values"! Great picture Brad.

Greg Thanks !! He has some really nice ones, I hope he adds a few more this year.

Joe has added another picture to his 2013 introductions plus another iris he says he won't have an image for until spring.

The last one he added a picture for is a really nice Iris the color was way different on it, the only thing close to describe it would be Platinum Class by Blyth, that's the first thing I thought when I saw it. My pictures of this were in full sun so color is a little off but it was stunning in his the garden and really stood out.

It would nice to always have an overcast day when taking pictures...........

Has anybody heard when Joe's catalog will be available?

It seems like they all are a little later this year looking forward to his and Mid Americas

Got my Ghio catalog today! Some nice deals listed.

He does have quality iris and some nice specials

I would love to get some of the Iris catalogs. IS there somewhere to get the info to order the cats??? Thanks Mona

The hybridizers' web sites usually have catalog ordering information.

I can't find a website for Ghio other than Monterey Bay and they don't have any info on his Iris other than photos. Now, it may be there, but I'm not finding it. So, all help is appreciated. THanks Mona

Mona...some of the older established hybridizers haven't built websites....Keppel and Ghio are two. Send for a paper catalog. Joe Ghio, Bay View Gardens, 1201 Bay Street, Santa Cruz, CA 95060. He has some of the pricey new things but a great listing of good cultivars that are a little older at nice prices. He sends nice rhizomes.

Thanks so much, Mona

Mona, here is Joe Ghio's email address and you can request a catalog that way. And he's usually very good about getting back to you within a day or so. He might ask you to send him a check for around $3.00, but maybe not.

Also, here is Keith Keppel's website address, and you can contact Keith to request a catalog that way.
