Hi Walter, we have RE and this is it's second year with us.  So far have
not seen a bloom but am sure we will have one this year because of all
the new growth.  I was cleaning back the mulch this morning on RE just to
look it over (did replace the mulch), growing season really hasn't
started yet and we now have 20 different fans of RE off 2 original rhzs.

We got Sea Power last year and it is also doing well but not great. 
Linda and I have been pulling the mulch off all our potted iris today (we
are also replacing the mulch, much too early here not to have mulch on). 
I really don't know how many iris we potted last year but it was very
many and after looking them all over today we only took one out of the
pot because the rhz was showing signs of rot and that was Maryott's Pure
As Gold, all the others are doing well.  So far (want to keep my fingers
crossed) we have not lost a single potted iris!  If things continue this
way this will be our best survival year in many years.

Linda has wanted Heaven since Joe introduced it but I have talked her out
of it for 2 years now but she has let me know that she will get it this
year!  :)
