The HIPS site is undergoing a reconstruction phase now. It will have lots more to offer in the near future.

Here are some more that showed up this morning:

Love Mist Glow!!!

Marilyn - I know how you feel about going to Bluebird Haven's site. Really hard to whittle down the historics list.

Technically this is an historic...although I still have trouble with that definition! Hilarious! Hilarious!

But I really love this iris and thought I would share! Big Grin

Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Neal, I am not a wealth of knowledge! Arlyn is a wealth of knowledge, as are many others here. I am just a sicko..a really bad iris addict who knows a little and has a lot to learn. I only started on the historic journey about 3 years ago, I have a looong way to go. Smiling
