And this was my favorite iris of last spring. I always forget that it is a Blyth!

I finally looked at Tempo Two's catalogue on the desktop the other day. I had to wait for the full resolution one to download. I love the SDBs 'Maglissa' and 'Spice Sister'

Me too, Niki!

I checked my plant list and I have 199 Blyths, yowzas! Definitely my favorite hybridizer

I have both of those on my wish list Liz.

199 is just the tip of the iceberg for you isn't it?

I'm hoping Barry will send me a few extra goodies

Here are a few of my favorite Blyth iris in my garden........
Puff the Magic





Rogue Trader





Stop flirting


Another Woman


Adoree





Merry Madrigal






Serena Louisa.....this iris is much prettier than my picture


CaptainThunderbolt


Treasure Trader





I'm Dreaming

Paul - is "I'm" on the right track because it looks a lot like I'm Dreaming. Which is lovely.

I'm Dreaming is correct......Many thanks. I will give it a proper ID.

I love that one. Mine bloomed out so plan to repurchase it.

I'm Dreaming is probably the best pink amoena that I've seen.

I have to agree. So amazing in the garden.

Some of the newer ones I want are:











Plus without pictures

I'll have to wait a few years for most.

Devil's Intent

Songsmith

Storm Brewing

All beauties!

Charlotte, I wanted the very same intros from them this year! ...and 'More Please'!

But I only ordered Songsmith due to lack of funds... I need another day-job!

Valley of Dreams, that came early in the spring from Australia this year, bloomed a few months later!

BB Code:

I wish I had that one.....

I really love Reckless In Denim. Mine died, but was kindly replaced by a member.

Wow this is a shock..his work will be missed tremendously. I have looked forward to his catalog and new introductions every fall it is always a treat to read through his catalogs during the winter months study his pedigrees and look at what new color combination he has created and where it came from. I'm hoping he will continue to hybridize and introduce them through Mid America it is always a pleasure to see Barry in Oregon in May.

Commercial growing/Farming is extremely hard work when weather conditions are perfect.. you throw in cold and wet conditions or the opposite heat and drought like they have experienced and it can make for a very disappointing season... Here are some of his newer ones to consider when your sending him your order
