Another fairly recent intro with I. balkana in the ancestry... I would
like to buy some balkana to see what its growth habits are in my
garden/climate. Anybody know of a source? Seems that both Sindt and
Hager have used it within the last decade or so? Other hybridizers?

forecast is for hail, storms, & high wind this afternoon, hard freeze
and overcast (so it won't warm up fast during the day) over the
weekend. I guess you folks in California decided to give my weather
back. :< At least we are having almost a week of much cooler
temperatures, so things won't be quite as tender as last week when highs
were nearly 90.
