RE: Re: HYB:Interesting seedling


I like this one.  Not every iris has to crumple its falls with ruffles.

 

I had half a dozen Mother Earth seedlings bloom this year.  Each had the tallest stalks I have ever had in my garden.  They were about four feet tall, mostly pretty yellow/violet bicolors with only four big flowers perched on the last foot of the stalks.  They will be gone as soon as I get around to digging them.  Has anyone else had this experience with Mother Earth babies?  They were Mother Earth X Pink Lenox.

 

Mother Earth herself is gone now.  She didn’t like my soil and climate.

Kind of a fun reblooming TB seedling.  Reblooming nicely yesterday with our
100 degree heat.  I like the colors, could be a little more ruffled.  nice
tall thick stalk with no summer clumping.  First rebloom after maiden spring
bloom.  5 increases.  37", 9 buds.  ((Twice Told X Mother Earth) X Shelby
Lynne) X Starring.
