Well, I have 2 more commercial orders to come yet, and I will add those when they do...and I have 2 "for postage" boxes coming, and I will add those, also. And being an honest sort of fellow....if I order any from the HIPS left over sale...rest assured that I will add that number to the total..........And there is a possibility that I MAY get another "bunch" of NOID iris....and those will be added, as well!
But as it stands now, there have been 341 named rhizomes planted this year....but, in my defense, there were 8 cultivars that came as "triplets", and were planted "as singles", and not as a clump....it's in the spirit of honesty that I explain this, and not to use it as any form of excuse ! The 341 # includes those "triplets" ! There have been 41 NOIDs planted, and some of those came as multiple rhizomes of the same cultivar...but I did not note which ones, or how many...they were planted as "clumps" of the same cultivar, and, honestly, If I were not so lazy, I could go out and figure the actual # of rhizomes involved ! I hope that you will accept my "guess-timate" that the 41 noids numbered about 60 rhizomes.....so...if my math is correct, I have planted 401 rhizomes, of 366 different cultivars........Arlyn
