The rules should be simple: One symposium. All irises. List your top 10
(or whatever) irises. No limits. No restrictions. Don't force people to
pick from some preconceived list.
If a species is my favorite... then let me vote for it. If a historic is
my favorite... then let me vote for it. Will it win? I doubt it. The TBs
may still come out on top, but I bet there will be some surprises! Such as
Iris danfordiae, perhaps, for being among the first to bloom... who knows?
But I sure want to find out!
As it stands today, the AIS TB Symposium is only meaningful to those
gardeners who are fortunate enough to have the money & land (and who happen
to live in the right climate) to grow plenty of new intros. And I think
that is a waste of resources *if* AIS wants to be an organization focused
on the average iris enthusiast... the Symposium should be geared to the
average grower (regardless of where they live).
