And there are lots of " Heirlooms" that need rescuing! I've hauled iris from road ditches, weed patches, and old farm steads, too, and always been happy that I did! I always wonder, if in the far, distant , future, any of our "current" laced and frilled beauties will be found growing under similar conditions...or whether we have bred out the "toughness", in a search for more ( scratch that...for a "Different kind" ) of beauty?....Arlyn
