I am nearing the end of that weeding project, Tom. I finished the 8-foot section that I intended to, and am half-way through the next 8-foot section. This section is very hard work -- thick with bermuda, with roots 6-8" below the surface, plus trying to dig through old Iris rhizomes that are embedded in the bermuda. So I'm doing this section in half-hour bites with the intention of getting through the whole thing. This is the final section of the fence closest to the road, so the whole thing will look better next Spring if I get this done. Also, I'll have a place to plant Irises from the other end of the bed when I tackle that next year.

But I had taken the time to make a list of the Irises that you'd sent me, plus some others that were given to me this year. I had the packing lists from the people/companies that I ordered from this year, so I was ready this time when you asked your question! :nodding:

Oh Brad -- I hope that they all bloom, so that there are pictures to share!! I am especially looking forward to *Red Skies*. And I've already started my *new* want list -- with *Pop Idol* at the top. *Plot Line* intrigues me, too.
