	But, have you noticed that two people, one in MT, have reported
bloom on plants received from Superstition.

	I think it might have to do with Oregon plants having what I call
'iris goiter.'  California plants do not have it, and Keith's (even though
he is in the same area as Schreiners and Cooleys) didn't this year.
