Rod,

That is a pretty flower.

Hi All,

This is I. fulva 'Illinois Dwarf' blooming now in Texas. It topped out at 18". the flowers are small and darker than it appears in the photo. You'll get to read about it and other LA species in the next issue of SIGNA. If my bee imitation works there will also be seeds available in the next seed exchange.

This stay-at-home time is a good opportunity to self some species for the next seed exchange. I've redoubled my efforts this year and I hope you will too. It may be early for many of you but you can at least think about what you can offer. 

Hand pollinated and wild collected seed or seed from wild collected plants are always the most desirable, but any seed you have is welcome. That includes seeds from cultivars – Siberians, spurias, Louisianas and PCNIs. We are always short seed from bearded and aril species.

Stay safe!

Rod
