I bought my first Iris in 1991 at an Iris Farm located in the outskirt's of Norman,OK owned by a couple who were hybryders. The farm was on the national Iris tour. The reason I remember the experience was they were getting divorced after many years and she was VERY angry at her husband. She was selling them for a dollar and I bought quite a few. I planted them at a home I had in Red Oak, Texas. When I sold the home in 1997 the Iris went with it.

We purchased our current home in 2012 and planted the first garden in 2013, they were all NOid's. Our first named were bought in 2014 and have been buying named ever since. This year I'll pay more than $20 for one Iris for the first time.

Blessings
