Not only are there bee crosses in our yard (and more successful than the
deliberate people crosses) but a couple of years ago Kevin (the Iris kid
with a camera) took a wonderful, tho not too clear, picture of an old
"Granny Iris" next to our mailbox with a tiny tree frog peeping out! Thi=
s
iris produced a seed pod and he planted the seeds. It has not yet produc=
ed
a bloom but he keeps speculating on the names possible such as Philius T.=
Phrog etc.
And BTW to Rick and Roger of Superstition Gardens-we tried to do our part=
to keep you from replanting even more iris - by buying lots of your
wonderful rhizomes and planting in our 90 degree, 90% humidity weather. =
Your amount of work is mind boggling! but you guys are a class act! Keep=
up the good work of super quality (and quantity) and reasonable prices.
(End of commercial but we mean every word!)
Grateful for a three day weekend with evening rain - all the better to
plant in my dears. Soon the iris will all be out of the kitchen,
livingroom and porch -good thing we don't have a garage or it would be fu=
ll
also.
