Linda, I have TEMPTONE, Grosvenor's intro from Silverado x
Dusky Challenger. It was planted in 2001 but did not bloom this
spring. However, it is the most vigorous of anything planted last
year, and I am looking for it to bloom in 2003 as a 'double-wide.'
Roberts 97-88a might put some vigor in retro lines. Try it with a
GPB rebloomer for some exciting seedlings. The iris world may
beat a path to your door!

soon in the season. Wunderground says snow and ice for
Greenwood/Leflore).
