One source for reblooming irises is Friendship Gardens, 2590 Wellworth Way,
West Friendship, MD 21794...catalog is $1.00. The cold weather reblooming
iris in my garden keep fairly nice foliage from spring until November. But
on one bed along the edge, we have nasturtiums planted, which grow over the
raised beds (2" high) and trail to the ground, and provide a big bouquet of
orange, yellow, red, and pink flowers every day...with lots of flowers still
on the plants. Clarence Mahan in VA
