Another hybridizer that reached back to the historics for strength was  Roger 
Nelson.  He introduced BLUE MONTANA SKY from FULL TIDE in 1994.   I didn't 
grow BMS and wonder, does anyone still grow it?  
 
More than anything I'm wondering if anyone is in contact with Roger.   
Somehow I managed to lose his address and lost contact about 5 years  ago.  I know 
it was at least 2 years, maybe more, after he moved  back to California.  He 
was having a hard time finding space to grow  his irises, if I remember 
correctly. No introductions for 10 years  now.  
 
Anyone know how Roger is doing?  Answer off-list.
