my 2018-19 iris pot ghetto
mostly trades and purchases, but a fair number of repots, and stock rescue holdovers
think there's 700+ pots in the row.
I'm a pathetic iris opioid addict. Crying

Wow, Tim. I'm glad I don't have to water all those pots. So, are they alphabetized?
I can hardly wait to get my ghetto of 16 into the ground and not have to water them all winter.
Leslie, I doubt you will be in any danger of dying from knowing that my 16 pots are alphabetized. Hilarious!

I am certainly impressed. This is the1st year I have ever potted any of my iris. They are SDB iris that I can't find a place to put them where I won't lose them. I don't tend to have much lunch putting plants, I either over or under water.

A potted ghetto is better than a potted grave yard. Can't wait till those reach full size and bring you complete happiness.
Gimme it and I'll grow it!
