Thanks Ellen and Linda
I don't have any idea whether this is an 'official' registered iris or not.
it was purchased from a local nursery as one of those pots with a printed
plastic tag that said Iris ensata 'Cry of Rejoice' and, except that it's
dark out and we have two inches of snow, I could tell you the commercial
nursery, but it's one of those big generic types that service KMart and the
like. So you get the picture. Anyway, thanks and I'll let you know what it
turns out like but i don't have any grand hopes, except it is alive and
that's something! I certainly hope this is the last snow we get.
