Re: extras
From: Miriam Dyak <mdyak@life-energy.net>
John - next time I'll know! This is only my second iris order ever and I had no
idea I could have a
wish list, much less express it - sort of like very brazenly asking for Xmas
gifts from distant
relatives. What was so puzzling was that when I placed the order they said I
had ONE extra coming
and gave a page to choose from. Then they included a sneak surprise extra I
wasn't expecting at
all. Who knows, with the ironic nature of the universe, it will probably
flourish and I will
totally love it when it blooms and looks oh so much more exciting than its
photograph! Miriam
