Roper's Revenge (Burseen) - okay I know, I have a Burseen problem, but the last two were only $4 each. I could not refuse!

What extra care do you need to give an iris to encourage the big flounces?

Really nice! Where did you get it from?

Regarding: Dance For Joy

I bought it the first year when I wasn't set up to keep good records. I think I bought it from Alicia at Williamson Flower Farm (http://www.williamsonfarmflowe...). Mine has not bloomed yet....hopefully this year (bought late in 2013).

It's not growing very quickly...but them again it's one of the ones that has been living in a pot.

I just went back and checked Blue J and it is NOT sold out. I shot a quick email to them to add one for me.

Leslie, you have a really nice collection of SAs! I'm especially enjoying the Burseens...I like them too...but you have to really hunt to find photos of some of them!

Oooh. I like that one Sherry. Nice color. I am trying to get SA's in a range of color. A lot are pastel, but I am finding some nice bright ones too.

Are there any all black ones?
