I would like to add, that many of my Burseen's have outrageous names, but in their case I got them for the incredible looking blooms and the names are just icing on the cake! And it is pretty humorous icing!!

I like it. Has Burgard's opened for ordering ?

Jesse's Song bought for a relatives name.

been thinking about getting this one for several years.

Best Friend
So grateful for all my close friends and all my Iris friends on ATP

Candace (no picture in database) I bought this one for someone who past away.

Cowabunga
Years ago my friend always said Cowabunga quite a bit. This one is for Angela.

Is there an Iris named Get r' Done ? If so, I need to get that one, since I don't have any that I purchased solely for the name. If I had one named that, then if I went through a little slump, I'd have to take a photo and put it in as large a form as possible on my refrigerator to remind me to put the hand to the plow.

Pretty Kitty for all my cats I've had over the years and for Kitty (my current kitty)

Pretty iris for the kitties!

Katie Girl, I still want to get this Iris. My grandmother's name was Kate and one of our Labs is named Katie. We call her Katie girl quite often.

This was my equivalent to receiving a Nintendo in the 80's. I love red/cirmsons and rebloomers. My first purchased and what will remain my most sacred. Funny thing, it looked so promising and gave me some 6 or so very Crappy blooms, but gave me 2 killer sized pods in return. I'll never share those into the database, but some have seen the pics. She's one i'll never forget though..
My second I had to get but haven't had a bloom yet comes from my home state, the BIG MITTEN.
What a awesome color combo too, didn't realize till now

Sure is, Gabriel.

Oh the reasons we can find to buy an iris!

This is Jamaica Me Crazy which is how I feel when I am trying to decide which irises to buy and where I can get the best price!


This is Miah Jane which obviously is part of my name. Great bloomer from Wild Iris Rows.

It is even nicer in person and gee, I wonder if that had anything to do with why I have it?!!!! (darn tootin' it is). I horde my MI Pride because it is getting hard to find and would hate to have mine die out.

Indeed she is one of the later openers. Not as late as Aitken's though. I think most vendors used to open in the spring but demand from iris obsessives has made it lucrative to open earlier.

I can tell you one I wont grow because of the name. It's Dodger Blue...I'm a SF Giants fan, there's no way that iris would be welcome in my garden.

Would be in mine, I like the Dodgers. Even had Branch Rickey's Little Blue Book.

My L.A. son, a rabid S.F. Giants' fan since he was a kid, married into
a family of equally rabid Dodgers fans! They keep it friendly though... sort of.
