<<flowers completely unrecognizable >>
This is what I
get with a direct hit. A faint drift is less harmful. I
thought it looked
more like light frost damage. Shame on me!
I've a neighbor that thinks
my roundup iris are pretty and wants the one
I"ve hit. (couple of years
ago--I've gotten better) I had a hard time
convincing her the blooms won't
look like that the next year.

Betty, you are right, colours can
vary.
Still, Round up might have made the edges paler, as
well as give longer
falls.
I have had
some flowers completely unrecognizable because of round up,
that's why i
just didn't think of that, the flower didn't look
monstrous...
So,
i've made a fool of myself, that will calm down my
ego!

Loic, I've not seen this one, but it looks much as
I'd expect for the
cross. I'd definitely20accept that it's a VIOLET MIRACLE
child. The
color can vary so much from place to place and for a variety
of
reasons. The fact that it's fall blooming the second year
indicates
it's possible it's right. Check it again in the spring.
I
did grow Her Royal Highness and even used it in breedling.

RE 1988 Byers
what do you mean Linda?
That i should i kill it
with Round up because it is not pretty,
or you think it looks like that
because it got Round up on?
There was no Round up on it,
it is an iris i got from Sutton's iris
last year, labelled His Royal
Highness.
First bloom fo
me.
