Beautiful pictures of gorgeous irises, Kent! Do you have SECRET WEEKEND? I was hoping to get it from Keith this year, but he's already eliminated it from his catalog -- bummer! I just love it! My CHOCOLATES AND SILK already gave up the ghost, I'm afraid. And some irises just never bloom for me! I've had LOOPTY LOO since it was introduced and have added a couple of rhizomes since to encourage it -- but still nothing! And I've had ENCHANTER for even longer and added extra rhizomes. I guess if they're not gonna bloom they're just not gonna bloom! So they're both outa here if they don't produce this spring! And I'm glad to finally see good pictures of NOBLE GESTURE. I got it from Keith when it was introduced two years ago, but it hasn't bloomed yet and I've never seen a clear picture of it until now, but it's really beautiful -- and maybe it'll bloom for me this year. Love the color on MAJESTIC RULER, too. Joe Ghio has a new purple this year, and if it's part of a collection I want I think I'll order it. I'm always looking for good purples.

Next I'd like to do amoenas -- Funny -- my computer just changed it to "amoebas" Hilarious! ...
