I may have to bring sedatives to the clinic to lower the excitement level! (Or a truck load of nuns to keep order!)

Actually I'm already excited about having everyone see the new ones. Many of you who came last year got to see some of the selected seedlings before I named them and I'll be interested in your comments on each now that they have "made the grade" .

All my pots of germinating seedlings are nestled in the warmth of the garage and I'm keeping the lights on them 24/ 7. I also have some crosses between some of the Sedum spathulifolium selections and a bunch germination in the pot of Sedum 'Sandy's Silver Crest' germinating too. Am most interested to see whether either that unusual variegation or cresting is passed onto the progeny. I may need more than 3 acres....

The Pacific Coast Native irises should be peaking that week. I have a couple hundred new seedlings from those lines plus all the new cultivars. Should be some very nice things blooming. The flowers on them are like little jewels. Anyway there should be MUCH to see. Let's hope everything survives this cold blast.
