Can't wait to see pics, Susan! Purple is still my favorite in irises, but I get where you're coming from.

Thank You Paul, I will look for them in the data base, I saw so many beautiful Irises on Stouts. I could have spent a lot more money but I keep getting rhizome flashbacks. I just don't want to spend too much time dividing irises. Actually the four I got are so beautiful I don't think I will mind too much.

I am still looking for a beautiful Iris called 'Lumalite' If anyone sees one please let me know.

PollyK, I love purple Irises in YOUR yard.

Grandchildren are my greatest joy.

If my 68 year old memory serves me right

here is a picture of Lumalite at one of our shows last year. We are having our first Utah Iris Society meeting of the year tomorrow night and I will ask who has it

Your memory is good Paul! That is so beautiful, I first saw it when someone added it to the database. Thanks for your help.

We had a meeting on showing irises on Sat. Unfortunately some of the newer members became bored & left early. & they are the ones who need instruction.

Our crocus here are finished already and there are no crayfish of any kind in my garden.

Next year I hope to have Iris reticulata here in my own garden as I always love the pictures I see posted. Going to order bulbs for this fall.

I just ordered some Rita. They are called 'Harmony' from Brent and Becky's. I thought they were beautiful too.

Yes, exactly! That is what I intend to order. 100 of that lovely blue one called Harmony. Will look really nice next spring.

Sure will

I'm still looking around but I might end up with a few more by then. Plus I have some beautiful bearded Irises I ordered from www.stoutgardens.com and I am getting one from Mamajacks also, called 'Impressionist'.

Mamajack also has some Irises for ponds but I don't have a pond right now, so I did hold off on that one, maybe next year!
