Subject: [iris-photos] REB: Slightly Nicer Orange Child

Again, not my camera. Doesn't generally have this much color. Pinker
on top,
peachier on falls. Metallic gold edge shows when planted in some
spots.Â
Â
If any of you are really bored, I posted a bit of doggerel - Dauber's
Lament -
on 6-10-07 about this one. Reliable, earlyÂRE here. Goes by the
garden name of
'Snoc'Â for slightly nicer orange child.Â
Â
When they were digging it after the regional at Chuck Bunnell's place,
it was blooming
again (in mid July) and the guy digging it told him it was like trying
to dig a sequoia.Â
This is more impressive if you're not aware that many MTBs were being
dug at the time.Â
Still, it's quite robust and over 36 inches.Â
Â
I've been without it for the last 2 years (long story) but intend to
use it this
spring.Â
