Hello Becky
Great talking to you!
RETURNING CHAMELON has bloomed here last month, it didn't seem to
have pollen. Maybe it's because it had been planted only 2 months...
I dabbed it with CURTAIN UP, BANANA CREAM, GUMBY, MIDSUMMER'S EVE,
JELLY BELLY, PROTON AND MATRIX, but nothing took!
Maybe in the spring it will be "broody".
I'm happy you agree with the idea of sharing. Let's start:
What is this iris-talk group you're talking of?
Maybe i should join it, because i realize this one is for photos,
and people might not like my talking about irises if there is
another place for it!
About irises:
I'm more interested in creating smaller irises than big ones. In
Holland, gardens are VERY small. In America, you just can't imagine
what they call a garden here:
5 meters X 2meters in front of the house, then a terrasse of 5metres
X 2metres behind the house with a "GARDEN" of 5metres X 3metres......
So they have 25m2 to plant!
So sdb and ib should be welcome here!
And if they rebloom, then it's perfect!
TB rapidly become a nuisance, are pulled, and that's it for irises.
The Duch don't like them.
So my goal is to concentrate genes in order to have rebloom from
july till the end of october, on smaller species and make the Duch
crazy about them.
There are worse goals in life!
Now you know me better.
Talk to you soon
