[Cult] RI -Re: Need Help and Ideas


I must confess I'm not sure about subject tags either, and 
unfortunately, I've lost all my files so I can't look.  I was offline 
for a month (I finally just had to buy a 2nd computer to use while 
mine is in the shop), and there are over 1000 messages to go 
through.  I know that the tags are in there somewhere but...

Anyway.. Gloria, I used to live in RI (between Summit and Greene in 
Coventry township).  Dwarf iris (SDB), medians, and TB (tall bearded)
iris all did well for me, plus pseudacorus grew wild in the little 
pond and street on one side of the property.  I think I also had some 
spuria and Japanese.    

I don't know what zone that was, but we had snow sometimes in October 
and you couldn't plant tomatoes out until well after Memorial Day.
