I'm sure everyone is looking forward to this, so let us know as soon as
your site is up and running. This will be a big first for irises in
Australia. I hope many others will follow your example.

Are you linking to the AIS site?

This is a great idea Heather. Just as artists works can be recognised by
the signature and style, your iris will be recognised not just by their
form, but by their names as well. Hybridising is, after all, an art, and
takes much more patience than painting a masterpiece and just as much
imagination.
Cheers, Jan Clark - the little Aussie weeder.
(And I wonder, Heather, do any of the US listers recognise my reference
to our own, appalling, Norman Gunston?)
