Wait a few years and I will be able to send you some cute freckled lily bulbs. Smiling

My son dug up most of the front lawn and we are planting iris. I got many of my new named iris in and many rhizomes from around the yard transplanted. I sowed old flower, basil and cilantro seeds right over them. I think it will be lovely having flowers amongst the iris, especially since the iris tend to be so early.

Thumb of 2014-07-13/Linneaj/cc095f The "lawn" used to be mostly violets and some grass. The violets were moved to the evergreen garden against a wall.

Thumb of 2014-07-13/Linneaj/1155d5 My son Nich, transplanting violets. He later planted 2 Bleeding Hearts and maybe 1000 NoID, purple, yellow and purple bi-colored iris we got free off of Craigslist. Perhaps next Spring they can be identified.

Don't make fear based decisions.
