Thanks all for all the "green" suggestions!!! They are all now on my 2017 Wishlist. Well save Snowtree which I planted this summer. I had seen but not considered Killarney Green but your pictures show very interesting markings ... On to the list
Lucy: You mentioned Arils. I just recently discovered them and they are definitely winning a place in my heart. I received De Nile as a gift several years ago from Zebra Iris and it was Love Love Love! I was looking at it several days ago though and it looks a little unhealthy. I may take a rhizome and move to a different part of the yard cause I don't want to lose it.
Anyways. I have 3 new Aribreds in the ground this year: Sand Dancer, Oyez and Genetic Artist. Anxious to see them.
