[PHOTO] Re: TB Repartee


Let me know how it does there, Janet. I'm going to get Repartee from her this July, and I'm going to try it in light shade first. This little lady has been growing irises a lot longer than I have, and has lots more varieties, so I listen carefully when I visit her. :-)

I read every post to this list and iris-talk.. 99% do not apply to me directly, but, like you, I sure enjoy the "gems" of growing tips I glean occasionally and I add to my wish list frequently.

(along with about 1,000 others) said it was one variety that appreciated a
bit of shade. Not only held its colors better in shade, but seemed to prefer
the shade at all stages of growth.

See, that's why I love this list...I was considering moving my REPARTEE to a sunnier spot but now I'll leave it right where it is!   (It is a newly planted clump.)
Thanks again friends!
