Hey Mark:

I have an idea..... why don't you contact your local garden club and offer to 
give a short presentation on the types of irises that grow in FLA.... OR, if 
you're not ready for that, maybe you could cut some blooms for a meeting and 
bring them with cultural info.  

OR, why not invite the local garden columnist out to your garden during bloom 
time.... those people are hungry for things to write about.  In fact, if you 
put together a 'fact sheet', they'll love you for it.... and if you even 
write them an article - they'll love you more!  

You can be an iris evangelist.
