	I can vouch for the above two TBs as being extreme cold survivors
	and would add:

	TOTAL RECALL

	SIGN OF VIRGO

	IMMORTALITY (of course :))

	I. pallida variegated (Aurea)

	All the other 280 bearded in my garden belong to other classes and
	they are *all* cold weather survivors - oops, forgot some diploid
	historics but I haven't seen them bloom yet so I can't count them.
	But they look fantastic and very vigorous. Must be the start they
	got in California under Rick and Roger. :)

	Cheers,

	Ellen
