Kent -- Endless Waltz is amazing!!!

crowrita1 said: MaryAnn, I think your NOID looks closer to "Shannopin", than Evolution,...but, you DID have one we thought looked like Evolution....we talked about it last year...was this the same iris !?

Yes -- this is the same Iris as the one we talked about last spring, Arlyn. I forgot about the possibility that it was Evolution -- gonna go look at some Evolution pictures!!

Nope -- I don't think it's Evolution either, Arlyn. It's much more pastel than either of those Irises.

Sorry I posted Expose before midnight .... As a famous movie went ... I thought these were "guidelines"

The alarm goes off at 0445 and I knew I was not going to be home until late today so I jumped at getting an "e" posted vs not getting one posted at all.

Marilyn, Confusione is beautiful!!! and love all the other Iris that have been posted!

I was just teasing Barbara...please don't give it another thought. With this group you have to play fast and loose with the "guidelines"

I think Just Past Midnight would be a great name for a very dark Iris. I just checked the database, and there was not an Iris with that name!

Congratulations Mary Ann,

Your thread made the top of the list in the newsletter! You should end this one and continue the alphabet on a new one each week, I'd bet we'd top the charts every week this is so cool!
