Anner.... I can almost SEE your garden. Thank you for the tour... and thank
you for the suggestions of what other plant material may work in an iris
garden (although I don't suppose most of these things are intermingled).
I think it's interesting too to see how bloom falls in your garden, but
describing what else is in bloom at the time! If I can retain the thought, I
will too!
