Really nice list! And you got Australian Rose twice! I was bummed that it was already sold out at Burgard's by the time I checked this year. Definitely will be one my list for next year!

See you ordered some nice flatties too! Hurray!

Thank you everyone, I haven't gave my count on Tom's Fess Up post yet. Still need to do that. There are a few I doubled ordered like Australian Rose and Class Ring and maybe some other one. I needed to get them in my database before I order from another vendor... It was ok in this case because I really wanted these. Hurray!
Leslie, by buying two means I can share faster. (hint hint) Thumbs up

I've been very conservative in my orders this year. I'm planning on adding some...I just have not narrowed down the list. I'm stretching out and adding a few Arilbreds, historics, and yes Bonnie & Lucy there will be some of the little guys added too! For now the one's on order are:

Brilliance
Mr. Three Wiggle
Rim Of Fire
Wizard Of Odds
Regimen
Arabian Archer
Pink Betterment
Dawning
Three Strikes
Brilliance (replacement)
My Lady's Manor
Smiles At Midnight
Tul Kerem
Aztec Prince
Vishnu
Dauntless

Oh Barbara, I sure hope they grow just fabulously for you then!!!

I notice a lot of us have ordered Vishnu this year. I think it is really lovely. All the pics I have seen here on the iris forum convinced me I needed it!!

Smiles At Midnight is popular too. But of course!

I've been admiring Vishnu for a couple years...but finally decided to begin adding a few historics. The photos here pushed me over the edge...the historics are so pretty!

For those who find "Vishnu" intriguing, you need to look at the other introductions from Grace Sturtevant . She hybridized at just the right time (IMHO) to really capture the tailored form that, to me at least, is what is so appealing about "historic" iris.

Thanks for the tip Arlyn! I guess the Hips site or AIS might have more photos. ATP is sadly lacking most of her cultivars.

I am actually getting her Anne Leslie this year too. I obviously like her iris!

I think it would be great to have an iris called Whiffenpoof. Smiling

Wonderful, wonderful lists of irises, Leslie. The little guy list make me envious. Now you are going to have to dream up some kind of scheme to get the iris beds built. Think Tom Sawyer and whitewashing a fence.

True Bonnie. Though my across the street neighbor is willing to help. He gets a real kick out of toting wheelbarrow loads of soil - and who am I to argue with that!!!!!

Absolutely! You need to provide your fellow humans/neighbors with opportunities for good deeds. lol Unfortunately, my neighbors think growing 'fliers' is nuts.

Well it certainly is a beautiful red. An obsessed iris collector would find room for that one! Hilarious!

Mary Ann, I expect your wish list will be coming shortly? Big Grin
