Richard, at the bottom of each post just to the left of the thumbs up and acorn there is a gray star- when you click it, it turns gold and effectively bookmarks the post. You can then go to your profile page and click on "your starred posts".

Sherry - I love Color Spektakel, and ordered it last year, but he had to sub it out. I would email him to see if he has it for this year. I did get Pretty Ballerina from him though. And he gave me some nice bonuses, including his Pink Fire, and Rock Climber.

I'm with you. Jen. Between the club sale and the freebies I just couldn't let go, I got more than I thought I would ever have!!! When I looked the other day, many of the freebies were NOT happy, so it looks like there will be room for 2016 acquisitions!!!

Thank you all for the Blue J Iris information, I'm just being impatient. Thumbs down But I want to get the order in for fear they are going to be sold out of some of them.

Lucy, I just stumbled on the star by accident one day, Hilarious! I'm surely not computer literate either. They're like vehicles- somebody needs to make sure it works and gets me there- and that ain't me.

Barbara - go ahead and put your order in. You can add to it after you hear back from them. Remember too to give them the list of which Jedlicka iris you would like and your other bonus choices. The Daughter is in charge of the orders and will at some point get back with you with the amount you get in bonuses and Jedlicka (yes, they give two types of bonuses). They are slow responding, but I got everything I ordered last year.

Thank you Jen. My iris aren't big enough for splitting. We can next year or more if I need to build up my variety, and I will remove that from my list to order. Smiling

Richard,

Moving iris in July, August they will be likely to bloom the next year. You don't need to move them in the spring when they are actively growing. In fact I would think they would be more likely to bloom if moved at the right time. Some small growers will dig in bloom when someone is there to look at the iris. I have heard good reports of next year bloom with that planting time too. The most important thing is to have the place ready to plant and get them right in. I should talk!

I rationalize that if I don't buy that iris I want this year, I'll have to wait two or more years to
see it bloom in my garden.
