RE: One more correction, was Re: Iris foetidissima 'Dart Hill'


 

Parts of her garden went various places.  I have her historic diploid irises. 

 

I’m sure Carla would love to hear from some of you.  Her phone number is  (425) 235-7065.  As I said previously, she and George are now in an assisted living facility in the Seattle area.  It is very hard for her not to have a garden.    She is distraught that her memory isn’t what it used to be.

I understand her irises went to Cascadia Iris Gardens and I'm currently investigating.

Does anyone know for sure?

Carla probably has some records on it somewhere, but she can’t locate them at present. She and her husband George have recently moved into an assisted living facility. It is correct that the name was never registered.
