Wow what a great group I like all of them but the ruffles on GOING BIG TIME and VOW OF SILENCE are awesome those just went to the top of the want list.

I got Joe's catalog a couple of days ago, but his intros on the MBIS website still haven't been updated for 2014 yet.

I stumbled onto this forum searching for downloadable pics of Ghio's 2014 intros. (I have the cat.) (when I buy from a grower, I create a folder for the order and download pics of what I buy. This way I have a convenient visual record of what I'm buying. This works when the grower has a website. Joe doesn't) I asked Joe a few months ago when the 2014 intros would be posted. He replied that the person who does this had the pics but was too busy to do the job. Given that we are now into July, I suspect that we may be waiting in vain. Regarding the pic posted by 'muddymitts' that another poster identified as EMBLEMATIC, I suggest that the iris in the pic is probably a sib to EMBLEMATIC, rather than E. itself. The color in the falls is too 'patchy' to match those of E. itself. This is how E. looked blooming for the first time this spring in my garden.

eellddo!

I'm not going to try to pronounce your username.

That is a beautiful iris eellddo.

Welcome eellddo! There are several pictures in the data base of his intros that Brad took while visiting this spring. I'm glad I have on order Emblematic and Celebratory, along with Rare Coin, Heavenly Host and Star Turn. If Brad hadn't taken such nice pictures I'd have more money in my pocket!

Hi eellddo --

Thanks for posting your opinion on the photo in question. Your picture of Emblematic is wonderful -- thanks for sharing.

Please join in all the threads in the Iris division of ATP. We love new members -- we love pictures -- we just love Irises and anything to do with them!!

Welcome eelldo!

Yes, welcome, eelido!

I'm late to the party, but ! I got so far behind on some of these threads ....Arlyn

I am guessing that was because you are so busy already planting new iris Arlyn!!
So are the first hundred in yet?

Close to that, I think! But mostly other chores, trying to get "ahead" a little so when the iris really start showing up, I am all ready for them.....Arlyn
