Don't they allow Triples out West?

Oh duh! Debra thanks!
Just so simple. Must be losing it. Hee!

An 18 wheeler would work better I agree. You might have to buy some more land to plant them all though!

I still sometimes forget we now lose data when we toggle back and forth from a working post.

If I ever run out of room (still have an open field)....I can plant what I want on my sisters 6 acre vacation home.

Omigod Rob -- the possibilities...............................

oh, if I only had more space. I fall asleep some nights working out the steps that I will have to do in order to plant the entire yard in irises. Then I would fall asleep planning what iris to plant next. LOL

Wow Rob...I'm jealous! You could do some serious pollen daubing!

Well maybe you need more then one 18 wheeler! I have 23 acres here, just think if I got rid of the horses how many iris I could plant. Then they would come and get me in their white coats!

23 acres...what a dream that would be in springtime! But you'd have to sell all your horses in order to buy the irises to plant!! I'm thinking, in the long run the horses would win out...now maybe taking a few acres here and there to a few plant irises...no, the men in coats would still carry you away and you would miss your horses and the iris blooms! Maybe you should leave things more or less as they are!

Most of these are from this year, w/ several from the nice folks on ATP!

I would be in trouble with 23 acres.

So is your veggie garden shrinking every year Tom.

Is that a combined have and want list Sherry?

3 parts, Rob. Have, want, and want

Sherry, looks like you better start another large bed. That's a long want list! I keep looking at Snapparazzi and like the picture in the catalog, but then I look on the data base and I'm not sure. Does any one grow it?

Rob, I've been steeling space from the veggie garden, and have plans to take another row of space, mostly for seedlings.

If Tom converted to all Iris, he could charge for tours which would pay for the Iris. Make patterns and pictures with the blooms that can only be seen from the air, like you see some folks have done with their cornfields? Have a whole section dedicated to the chickens. Another section for dogs and puppies. The possibilities, oh the possibilities...

Here are a few more Blyth irises to view.
Drinks at Sunset, or is it Drunks???

I prefer full frontal on iris pics, with beard showing. (not the side view so much) Nice photos, Tom!

I like when you have both shots. Get to see different aspects of the bloom.

I'd like to see the side view first.
