Flash of Light is another of the many opened today. I'm never going to keep up with this, so I'm not even trying. I'll have all winter to keep up.

Your schnauzer family was adorable, Tom. We do miss the fur persons when they're gone.

Barbalee is right Tom -- who better than you to create an Iris to be named for each one of them? Green Grin!

Looking good, Tom ! Is Strawberry Freeze a "slow grower" for you ? I've had it for a while, and it's yet to have a bloom .

It's not the slowest grower, but not breaking any records either. It's in my micro climate by the house.

I waited 8 years to see this iris. Meet "Chutney" Not bad for an older Ghio.

First time I have seen Chutney, Tom. Beautiful iris.
