I agree with Betty, you have a magnificent collection Lowell! I bought about 15 plants of Iris missouriensis last year and a few of them survived, so I'm hoping that finally -- after years of trying -- I'll get one to bloom in my garden. Your missouriensis clone looks lovely! I hope mine will be like that. I find it so annoying that success is elusive for me in growing native US species (missouriensis, cristata, verna) yet I can grow things from TOTALLY foreign climates with ease (hoogiana, stolonifera). So I finally decided to try the brute force method with missouriensis.... buy a bunch of them from a bunch of different nurseries from a bunch of different states & plant them in a bunch of different places all over my yard. Something, somewhere, might maybe be happy enough to bloom. |
