Walter, If you like this color, I've got a truck full, mostly from
Thornbird.
<Horatio X Crowned Heads (poppa influence)

In this case it could be a good thing, even though the mamas are good
iris also.

I had high hopes for this cross, maybe a bunch of little Ziggys or even a
big Ziggy.
<95-18, The plainer one may get the nod because of the reblooming

the <selection harder. Decisions, decisions.
I've found that show judges will go for the ruffly ones and the public
likes the plain ones if the color is better.
