After planning on trades or for postage, I went to the data base for pics, printed them out, and went to my excel spreadsheet of iris I already have and input them so I know what colors I need to fill in my beds. The iris I received were planted so that no similar iris is near another, and they coordinate with the colors in the beds I already have. I have spent more time on the computer than I intended, organizing the spreadsheet, making lists with links to the database, and mapping the planting sections with addenda to the compendium of identification, care, transplanting and dividing info I did a couple of years ago of all the varieties of my flowers.
