Its hotter'n L out today so I am cruising my currant intrest area Iris. I dont have luck with L Sunshine but would like to try again.

I am Jo Ann Gentle/I live near Lake Ontario in a Rochester suburb.

My DD#2 and SIL,and I sold our houses 4 years ago and bought a big one with a first floor suite which is mine.
I also have spent $$$$$ and time building gardens here. I guess collectivly they measure about 3thousand sq.feet.

It doesnt matter really ,everyones garden spot is special.

I am an artist ,made and sold potter for 30 years and turned to watercolor painting in '96. Loading kilns and hauling clay just got to be too much.

I raised 4 daughters, all in their 50's now. I am a grandmother of 4 post teens young adults is the best way to describe it.

I have always loved iris,my grandmother had rows of them in her gardens.I just didnt think I could take care of them so didnt squeeze them into the garden plan.
Funny how 4 years and plant deaths makes room for the next plant to love.
