Thanks El,
 
It's ironic you named your first sdlgs. after your grandchildren.  I want a couple of good irises to name after my two nieces, Olivia & Sophie.

Congrats on your first sdlg, Billy.  It bears watching. 
 
My first few seedlings are named after my 4 grandchildren, just garden names, not registered.  They all come to visit "their" iris when I let them know it's about to bloom.

This is my very first seedling to bloom. Sdlg: 08-01D, Moon Over Madness X Barbara Jean. 5 buds, tight branching.  There are 3 other seedlings from this cross, but no bloom from them this year. I really like the style arms and interested in seeing what it does the next couple of years.
 
All comments or criticisms greatly appreciated.
