Alrighty -- let's see if we can take the top two spots in thread activity this week. Green Grin!

First of all -- if I've missed a color that anyone thinks we should include -- please say so. For instance -- I was wondering if we should have Wine/Burgundy as a separate color?

For today: I have noticed, as I've gone through my Irises over the past ten days or so, that I keep passing up certain cultivars because their color *didn't quite fit* into the category of each day. I'm guessing that others have experienced the same thing.

So -- today is Oddball Day. Show us your Oddball Irises -- even if you showed them in another color category trying to fit them in.

I'll start off with Thornbird. Thornbird is a color all by itself -- mine is a greeny-grey.
