SPEC: Iris pseudacorus.


     Today, at the Kanapaha Botanical Garden in Gainesville [Florida], I
saw a very large planting of Iris pseudacorus in full bloom.  It was all
the common yellow single form, but the blooms were so large.  The plants
were growing in and beside a small pond.  I thought about going for a
closer look, then I saw the Alligator basking in the sun...  No closer look
for me.  
     Also, on another part of the same pond, there were Cannas growing IN
the water.  I didn't know that Cannas could grow and bloom with the
rhizomes totally submerged.
