Re: Superstition Iris - - new 2004 Intro Pics are out

Slpashacata is doing well for me - - so far.  I've had it for 2 years now. It's increased well and the blooms have been spectacular usually with 3 flowers opened at once on a stalk.   I wonder if you just ended up with a bum rhizome. 
 
What I do sometimes is order 2 of the same rhizome from different places.  And - - it DOES make a difference!  With each rhizome planted toe to toe - - quite often - - I'll find one rhizome grows well and flourishes while the other struggles. I think many times  - - it all depends on how the irises are fed and cared for before you receive them.

Celestial Explosion and True Spirit make gorgeous pictures.  Unfortunately they are both seedlings of Splashacata.  Splashacata was one of the poorest performers in my guest garden this year.  It just dwindled and produced no viable rhizomes when dug.  No matter how beautiful, if an iris isn’t vigorous in my garden, it’s a disappointment.

Say - - do any of you want a peek at Superstition Iris Gardens new Intros for 2004?  They are on-line now.  You should see - - CELESTIAL EXPLOSION.    The link is just below.  All the 2003 seedlings links are just to the left of the 2004 photos.  Some of those seedling PICS are breathtaking.
