tveguy3 said:Neil that's on nice bunch you have on order. You won't regret ordering from them.

I sent an order into Keppel's irises today. It's the first order for me for the year.

I ordered:

Keppel Irises:
Another Suggestion
Dark Energy
Flash Mob
Gheradelli Square
Mixed Signals
Arson

Blyth Irises:
Painted Words
She
Pepper Jack
Woven Sunlight

I wanted sooooo many more, but I beat myself back with a buggy whip, and made myself set some limits. Dang, it's hard to be good.. . . . I wanna be good. *Blush*

Tom, sometimes being BAD.... is really GOOD Whistling

"Wherever will they go" is the never ending question for gardeners. But somehow we manage to find a place one way or another don't we!! I am adamant about not making any new beds, so it's going to be cull cull cull if I keep ordering. The boxes will be flying I'm thinking if I order too many more. Hilarious!

Richard, Superstition is where I sent the order I listed. They have a large selection of Blythe intros- I've been kind of obsessed with Blythe irises lately.

Nice, Tom Thumbs up I keep running into Keppel intros that are catching my eye too.

Tom - It was you who suggested I get more pots, wasn't it??? Well, my BlueJ order will blow thru the 60 I have, so it's either another 60 pots or the front lawn. Come to think of it, that lawn is a real royal to mow. Besides, who would look at pictures of a lawn? And how many folks would read a thread called "What did you do in your lawn today"?

I'm gonna eventually buy more, but most will be recycled for over flow and selling down the road. I'll probably go with smaller pots too to save on dirt since they won't be potted too long next time. The 2 gallons are pretty awesome though.
Gimme it and I'll grow it!

I do believe that lawn is unnecessary.
