Re: PHOTOS: damaged plants

Sure, Linda -- It might be helpful for some of us to see the contrast between the irises that you treated differently. -- Griff

Subject: [iris] PHOTOS: damaged plants
Anybody interested in seeing photos of what it looks like out in the iris patch today? I took some pictures for my own reference - won't post unless somebody wants to see. Not a pretty sight. My memory (i.e., lack thereof) being what it is, I want something to refer to if/when bloom starts.
The two rows that were covered are strikingly in better shape than the rest. Most older seedlings (stronger parents) are in better shape than most younger (one strong, one weak but "better" parent). By "stronger" and "weaker" I mean stronger vs weaker in this hell hole, not elsewhere.
To cheer me up <g>, one of the potted irises (MULBERRY ECHO, I think) I dragged indoors has a stalk showing color, and pot of DECADENCE (also dragged indoors) has a stalk coming along. Questionable whether or not there will be a mate for either of them.
