[PHOTO] TB: Gay Geisha

This one is one growing at the St. Joseph's church garden in my town.
Gay Geisha (Olson 1961) is big, impressive in person, and I think one of my 
favorites. I'm going to try it out this coming year.

>Must remember to attach photograph before emailing iris-photos, sorry for

>With 35mm camera Sinister Desire photographs as a black self IB, with 
>digital camera it photographs the standards are a dark grape/purple. I 
>think the digital photograph is more accurate.

>Sinister Desire is fertile both ways, however getting the seeds to sprout

>have the seeds and will try again winter of 2001/2002.

>Iris brevicaulis is still blooming in my garden.  As I was collecting
