Very nice clump, Linda. It almost looks
like one I've been trying to id here, but alas, my purchased I germanica
didn't survive long enough to bloom. I'll have to hunt it down again,
but I also have quite a few other historics I'm trying to id as
well.
Last year, I finally managed to id an iris I've
been growing for close to 20 years. What a thrill that was!
