Re: Can anyone help with 2 historic iris no-names


Merrily,

Thanks, I did not know that Schriener's got their start in St. Paul.  Always
thought that they had started out there in Oregon.  I will try to take better
pictures of the blue and pink this year.  I am also going to buy all the
blues that I can afford of historics this year in an effort to also try to
identify my blue.  I think that the pink is going to be harder because of the
different shades and values in the pink iris.

If I get some good pictures, I will send it to HIPS and to Schriener's and
see if this mystery can't be solved.

Again, thank you for trying to help me with this mystery.  (but isn't it fun
to pour over the old catalogs trying to figure which discription comes the
closest)
