Re: Japanese Iris

	Hello,

	On p. 21 of the Ensata Gardens catalog, they offer collections of
	10 different Japanese Iris for $39.00 - a real bargain!  They will
	supply up to 3 different collections of JI - this is great for the
	"beginner" or for a special need someone has for landscaping,etc.

	I only wish I had done it that way when I first started - I still
	may order a collection this year - have someone else decide.....
	
	My favorite the first year was Raspberry Gem (because it  had three
	bloom stalks) - and Little Snowman (because it had two bloom stalks).
	This becomes a big event in Zone 3....I planted the rhizomes in
	July and in a year, there was magic in my back garden.

	Good luck,

	Ellen Gallgher
