Re: Welcom Loic

Thanks for the welcome!
 
I think my very  favorite is not a species, it's  TB  Clarence, because each time it opens (and re-opens), my lower jaw just falls, and saliva starts dripping on my chin, an awful sigh, (but it happens only very early in the morning, so no one is around...), it's the only iris that has this effect on me....so far!
 
as for species, i'm always very impressed by my Spuria Ochroleuca every year.
 
I also have Clown Pants, a reblooming diploid IB that Thomas Silver sent me 2 years ago, It's (variegata Beardsley X Iris suaveolens var mellita) and i hope a lot from it!
 
I also have Dolce from Paul Black, and some Aphylla derivatives from the Craigs that i intend to use a lot to improve branching and bud count on my IB.
 
 
 
But all this must seem to you very far from real Species!!!
 
i hope i will improve my knowledge, with you help!
 
 
 
 
About my name, it's nor really French, it's from Bretagne, a province where they used to speak Gaelic, like in Ireland or scotland, ant they still use weird names there.
Some are starting to spread... like loïc.
 
It should be pronounced "Low - eek", thanks to the ï .
Without the ï, it would be "Lwak" , unbearable!
 
 
Voilà, you know it all!
 
looking forward to hearing from you all!
 
loïc

Loic,

welcome aboard.  I only joined recently, even after years with Iris.  Do you have any special loves you grow?

Just joking, welcome to the group.



Jim,  think in the direction 'loyk'  with two sylabils, and you're pretty darn close.  I'm sure Loic can explain it better.  Not a common name, even in Flanders, but particularly melodic.
