===================================================
John I live in Rock Hill.S.C. and belong to both
the Daylily and the Lilum photo Groups and associations. I live on an acre lot
with two thirss in yard and about half the yard spacde in flowers. For a long
time I planted the front yardand have a couple of nice beds, but it is the
back yard that SHOULD BE a real beauty this year. I put out a 100
Liliums of all kind, both in a Lilium bed anfd in containaer and new Iris
BOrders in various place in the yard..Each did well this year , along with old
Lilies so I am really looking forward to some pretty things next year. I put
out about `175 MORE new Iris this year to go with a TON of Iris I inherited
from my Mother and my Aunt. I guess I've got about 400 in all.I may have lost
a bunch of the old ones last summer to the drought. Practically NO rain ln the
spring or summer until August. We were dorn 10-12" beforet he rain
finally came back in late August and early September. We have had a LOT of
rains since then.
I would LOVE for you to come visit me this
spring. I am right off 77 South of Charlotte or you can cut over at Blacksberg
and come up 5. If you DO decide to come, send me a note and call me to make
sure I will be here and I can give good directions tof you.. I usually
somekind of Dr. Appt every week, but I woulfd LOVE to have you come
visit.....................
That Funny & Friendly Old Coot, named John
