Sue, your garden looks terrific! It's hard to believe your FIL is in his 80's.!
The smalls you gave me in the spring are doing so well!
As for the broken color discussion - I mentioned before that seeing Millennium Falcon,
and the novelty of its blue broken color pattern, revived my interest in irises a few years ago, and the interest just
keeps growing. However, the broken color patterns have lost some of their allure for me and
I've gone on to others. I also like pink - which some people don't. I love most irises, but I'm not
a fan of the "burnt" patterns. I also have a hard time loving the garish golds with red. and usually
prefer softer pastels.
Which just goes to show that WE'RE ALL DIFFERENT! But we all love irises.
