Hi All,
My love of daylilies led me to ATP and now I am becoming interested in Irises. I was planning on buying a few from Gilbert H. Wild's. Particularly Beverly Sills, Immortality, and World Premier. These seemed to be a good basic start. I have a deep blue one that has an airier form and a soft sherbet orange one that bloomed the first time this year. I planted it 5 yrs ago and had given up on it. Those blooms were about 4 to 5 inches wide and we're just lovely. Because of that, I am going to add more irises to my gardens!

I have no irises to share yet. The two that I have are not labeled. My experience with ATP daylily offerings for sale is that I have purchased some lovely daylilies at prices I can afford. Are any of you able to point me in the direction of any members who offer irises for sale?

Finally, do you know if any of the reblooming irises actually rebloom in zone 5a? Our season is short and I wonder if there is actually time for those beauties to put out a second show. :)

Thank you everyone
