Name: Brad
iowa (Zone 5a)
I was one of the first 300 contributors to the plant database! Celebrating Gardening: 2015
The next garden I want to share is Kieth Keppel's garden it was a real treat for me to be able to walk his Iris Beds and look at what he has been working on, and the chance to see some of my favorites up close and personal in clumps. I missed a lot of his earlier varieties that I wanted to see blooming in a clump (Volcanic Glow & Noble Gesture) but caught the majority of his new intro's for the year and a great deal of the Blyth Irises from Australia were blooming and my Wish list just kept growing Big Grin and growing. I think what amazed me the most was quanity of seedlings so many good ones to go through and somehow he takes care of all it by himself and creates some amazing plants. If you have never bought any from him I would put him at the top of the list, the plants are well grown and he is very generous with bonus. Here are some full garden pics.
