Oh Jan, that ruffled mauve seedling looks like the pinafores I had to wear as a child. It's gorgeous!
'Superhero' is also on my list...
There are a few historics that got bounced off my orders the past couple of years.. 'Pinnicle', 'Apple Valley', and 'Pink Magnolia'.. ...and I'm waiting for 'Ginny Mitchell' to come down another notch in price. But as far as pure lust, I'm going to have to look everything back up on my list..
It changes daily.. Big Grin

Ginny Mitchell is a nice one, and since it's a fast increaser, barring any issues, I may be able to spare a rhizome next year even though I just planted it last year.

What I had in mind was, if you were offered any rhizome you wanted, today, free from Santa or the Tooth Fairy,
what would it be? It can vary, depending on which is your fave on any given day.

No Mary Ann, that's a picture from 2 years ago. I now only use a short 4 foot tree. I need to shampoo the carpet before I put up the tree. I don't rush putting up my tree ususally.

Thank-you Tom! There's a gal I have sung with by the same name. The Iris is named after Fred Kerr's sister-in-law.. It's nice to know who some of the people these iris are named after.
