Okay, so Mike hasn't shown us any additional 2019 introductions and, while I do have
some, I do not have
enough chutzpah to prod him about it.
What he
has shown us are three more upcoming introductions (2020 or 2021). If you want to avoid keyboard drool and/or prefer to wait until they are ready to buy, skip the rest of this post.

"Another fast track to intro seedling, surprisingly a sib to the previous post. It too lost the top half of it's stalk due to the tractor but it looks like it has 3 branches, spur and terminal. Caught this just as it was opening so it expanded quite a bit when it was fully opened. Really deep, rich color to the falls and nice veining on the standards. Also an interesting color combination."

"Some iris are reselected for color, some for form or some other characteristic. This one was for lacing and form and very thick substance (subtle color is nice too). On the fast track to intro and depending on growth this upcoming year will probably be out in 2020. One of the reselects from a very productive cross of Haunted Heart X Strawberry Frosting."

"Another fast track TB seedling. amazing wire rim on the falls gives the flower a cut-out appearance and really defines the falls. Nice gilt edging to the standards too, oh, and the form is pretty nice. It's one of those flowers that stops you in your tracks while walking through the garden..unusual in less than super bright flowers."
Hats off to anyone who can calculate odds to 6 decimal places
