Greg, I want to get Honky Tonk Hussy. I bought it from a vendor and it is the wrong iris. That vendor is no longer around. I liked it so much and thought I had it so I feel like it is a replacement iris. lol Here are the ones I lost this year and have not replaced yet.

Brown Lasso (must replace this one)
Baboon Bottom (will replace it as I go)
Anvil of Darkness (will replace it as I go)
Dangerous Mood (must replace this one)
Halloween Moon (must replace this one)
Crackling Caldera (great beards, will replace it as I go)
Fleabitten Butterscotch (must replace this one)
Mad World (really want to replace this one)
Matt McNames (must replace this one)
Moment SDB (must replace this one)

Some of these survived the spring hail storm but just could not hold on with split rhizomes and all their leaves broken and beaten. I already have one order with several on it ready to send next spring. I have had a near miss with rot on Enchanted Princess but I dug it up and did surgery and saved two rhizomes. I lost half of protocol and a few rhizomes of a noid SDB to rot. So far so good.
Thro' all the tumult and the strife I hear the music ringing; It finds an echo in my soul— How can I keep from singing?
