Now this really surprised me Walter. I thought as a hybridizer you would buy whatever you felt you needed to hybridize with - regardless of the name.
If an iris has a certain trait I want to work with, especially if it was exceptional modern form, destinctive, and/or a well reported rebloomer, I wouldn't care if it was named WALTA'S COW PIE, I'd still buy it.
Hmmm....

how pretty the iris might be, I would NOT buy them.

Ima Kinda Lima
Working Too Hard
Afternoon Delight
Horny Lorri
Knock "Em Dead
Pheasant Feathers (nothing with feather because of allergies)
