Re: HIST-Loreley

I've had it but don't think it will bloom this year.  I may have lost it.  It was a beautiful iris.  If it had bloomed I could send you some.  I got it from Adam Grove.  Mary

    Well folks, I'm as bad as a new  convert about this 1909 iris.   I just love 
    it!   I saw it first two years ago at Argyle Acres and it was love at first 
    sight.   I had to have it.
    They had just gotten it the fall before and didn't have enough to sell, so I 
    resigned myself to a wait, when lo I found it in the Maryott catalogue. Mine 
    is blooming now
    and it is sooo pretty.   It is median height and reminds me of a slightly 
    larger MTB
    with  pale lemon standards with irregular patches of purple veined areas with 
    white background.   The falls have hafts of the veined purp. on white 
    blending into purple  with a yellow rim.   They are round and flairing with 
    six blooms per stem and good substance.   Maybe to all the rest of you who 
    grow historc iris, this one is old hat,
    but for those who dont, try it.   You'll like it.
