Re: My first introduction

Sorry about not putting any more info on Lead Dog. He's a TB, parents are Green & Gifted x unknown. The unknown is a yellow TB landscape iris that I probably will never know it's name. All siblings were various yellows except what I call Lead Dog's brother and he is a 'muddy' iris. I personally like muddy iris but the judges handbook says it's a no no, even when they say color shouldn't be a factor in judging. Lead Dog (seedling # 626A) was at the National in Fresno last year and will be up at Portland next year but in all probability, no won't see it as it is a very early bloomer.Attached is Lead Dog's brother. The picture is darker than it really is.
