I probably should move one of the rhizomes to another location to see if it will grow better there.
Politicians are like diapers, they need to be changed often, and for the same reason.

Lilli - so, so true! It was not an easy task only choosing 24. Come spring, I will let you know if there are any that were incorrectly labelled. So far, I have been lucky with Cayeux and Bianco in that respect.


I never had a mislabelled iris from Cayeux or Bianco either and I have ordered from them 'more than once' Whistling

I am looking forward to your report and Crossing Fingers! they are all what they are supposed to be!
Of course I talk to myself; sometimes I need expert advice!
