It is very pretty. Obviously it grows well!

I have one little noid, and it should bloom soon. Was suppose to be Skiddle but is the wrong color. Grows well, so maybe I can get some ID suggestions from all of you.

Tom - I love my Inner Space. Think it is a good choice for you!

Do some looking. 'Beverly's gift looks a lot like 'Sunstrip'. If you can get that, grow it along side & see.

I have bought many little look-alikes and none are matches. It is not a new one. Perhaps 7 or 8 years old or older. On the plus side I have many little happy similar irises.

I do Liz but it is not my photo. This is the first year I have GT and so far it has not bloomed. I can treemail the photo to you if you would like but caution you that it is not mine and we cant use it. It is just for personal reference.

That's fine, I just want something else that isn't the one on the website. It is a little tough for me to tell what it really looks like.

I have Guady Thing too but it hasn't bloomed yet.

Speaking of, when will Filardi be updating his website and opening for sales this year?

Bruce is a very nice person to deal with. And his irises like my garden.
