Beautiful Banner.

In Montclair, NJ there is the The Presby Memorial Iris Gardens. The iris gardens contain over 14,000 irises of approximately 3,000 varieties and produce over 100,000 blooms over the course of the season. I went there about 30 years ago. It was gorgeous.

I knew I had a banner coming up, but didn't know it was for Monday! Thanks for your kind comments Rj, Nancy and Jim. And the link to the iris garden in New Jersey--that looks like a beautiful place!

Such a lovely banner, Laurie! I know little about dwarf bearded iris, planted a few last Fall and am looking forward to them blooming. The more I see the more I like them.

Thank you, Donna. I hope your little irises do well. In 2 or 3 years you should have a nice little clump from each original rhizome.
