My name is Niki. I am originally from Alaska. Gardening in the high desert has been a real change. I have always loved flowers (thanks Mom). I didn't see a bearded Iris until I was in my early twenties, but I loved the wild siberian Iris that grew up north. I am a stay-at-home mom to young children. I enjoy the outdoors, gardening, baking, art, and reading.
Even though I live in Oregon the nearest Iris society is across a mountain range. I am happy to have found this forum where everyone has been so friendly and informative. Even though we are all enabling each other
