Re: CULT:TB: survivors part deux

Bill and anyone else interested in northern hardy iris, 

Using Laurie's format, below is my list of survivors (all classes) from growing conditions and a climate similar to Laurie's but with slightly warmer winters.  All of these cultivars started out as one healthy rhizome going into last winter and the number after them is the current number of fans I now have from that one initial rhizome.  Most of these are older varieties.

Survived and bloomed this year:
Broadway TB (7)
Concertina IB (4)
Cute Orange Horn BB (4)
Eagle Control TB (4)
Forbidden Delight TB (5)
Gibson Girl TB (4)
Leprechaun's Delight SDB (5)
Lilting TB (5)
Lover's Lane TB (5)
Michigan Pride TB (5)
New Cool TB (3)
Off Broadway TB (3)
Platform TB (5)


Survived with no blooms this year:
Alaskan Seas TB (4)
Aztec Affluence TB (3)
Candy Rock IB (7)
Change Of Pace TB (3)
Seastone SDB (5)
Stairway To Heaven TB (5)


And here are the TBs I've had for many years that grow like weeds here in northeast Wisconsin.  I gave away shopping bags full of surplus rhizomes when I divided them this spring:

Rippling Rose
Stepping Out
Superstition
Infinite Grace
Gay Parasol
Gypsy Caravan
