Hi Mary Ann: Storms going thru again and I am on battery power now so I will hurry. If Silverado came from you, it is beautiful. Glad I have it in my garden. Not sure about the NOID Bright Gold, I wasn't on here several years ago trading. So what is "several years" in garden terms, it goes by rather fast anymore. I seriously can not remember which ones you sent, sorry. If it is, it is still pretty and the name does not matter. I was so organized before I lost iris, plants and tags, well anyway, as organized as I can considering. As you say, starting over.
I know I had bought some iris from a Garden Club sale a few years back, hard to remember where everything comes form. Every year I buy from many garden clubs in our area, and generally speaking they are never named. I buy iris from the iris society I belong to and have found out they do not bloom according to the picture they bring with them to the sales. It all is just a guess around here anymore. Even some I order from Growers are not blooming true to name,.
The second picture from the bottom actually is not that blue, more pale lavender. I will see if I can find a different picture of the same one taken on another day. That is why it is so hard to really tell them apart. Thanks for chatting with me and I will see if I have others, but have to get off computer before I run out of power. If the storm passes soon and power comes back on, I will try to get back in touch. Meanwhile babysitting 3 dogs under my feet again. Have a nice evening. Marsha
