Yea, but those 3 are the biggies. Mid-A, Napa & Schreiners. That's where the "I need another 60 pots" comes into play. I only started growing iris in 2013 so I have many "I wants" to go. You will know when I put those orders in, credit cards all over the planet will grown!!

But I would gladly pay shipping for any kind folks who would like to send a box my way (along with many grateful thank you).

After spring bloom I assess which need thinning, so I will let you know what is available to ride along with your Girly Girl, John.

I only have a few to share. I don't have a brad, or Tom arsenal, but'll be glad to share. May not be a monster west coast rhizome...but I'll have "some" hopefully after blooms.

What is this She iris?
Gimme it and I'll grow it!

A new Blyth iris Gabe. Direct from Oz, where it sold out immediately. Jan is one of the lucky buyers.

I also got Organza - when I found that Sherbet Bomb was sold out.
(I'm still reeling at the cost - but I have a million excuses, Birthday, Christmas,
Jan was a good girl, etc....)

I am more then happy to share whatever I have growth on with whoever would like it. I won't really know what all I can share until early spring. A lot of mine are new. I only started in 2012 but didn't really go full blown crazy till the last two years, After my beyond disappointing order from Schreiners last year and not so good customer service I will not be placing orders with them any longer. I am going to stick with the smaller company's that depend on repeat customers and are happy to have them.

Morning Hues will probably come here. They sell out of historics quickly, but not medians.

Interesting to me how a new variety can have appealing traits that I can't quite put my finger on. Like 'Morning Hues' for example- there are loads of blue and white amoenas out there, but something about Morning Hues looks special and unique to me, just not sure exactly what it is. Perhaps it is simply the nature of addiction....LOL

Nice database pics of your new iris buys Jan! Glad you added them for Tempo Two.
