Laetitia,
My site is up and running but it's still rough around the edges. I need
to get the bugs out and correct the grammar before I share the address.
I do have an iris section with photos, culture info for zone 4 including
my early planting thoughts, seed germination info and some other stuff.
I'll get to work cleaning it up soon, I've been lazy for the last 2
weeks because the arctic weather here is getting to me.
