OK, I have always loved flowers even tho I can not smell their wonderful fragrance unless it is hot and tons of blooms. Lost that sense as a kid about 7 years old.
In CA we had very area for flowers, but when we moved to OR we had 10 acres, lots of different flowers to enjoy and explore. Back in oh say 94-93 I drove by a huge garden that had tons of iris, just piled high no names for 2 or 3.oo dollars, did not know at the time, they were from Schreiners that were culled iris. In the wrong spot or ones they decided NO MORE, so I got tons of them and I still have them in my gardens around the house, well one thing lead to another and started buying from all over including the mart iris, then the business happened.
I love the colors of the iris, not really in to ones that are selfs but have them of course.
