I think you may be on to something with the genetic perspective. I
suffer from apparently inherited conditions from each of my
grandfathers. My maternal grandfather was an avid gardener and my
paternal grandfather was a horseman. (They tell me that my first
word was horse.) My main bed of Irises is planted in the far back
end of a pasture I converted for gardening.
My neighbors actually stop to comment that I'm crazy when they see me
cutting sod again to open yet another bed. One of them halfway
teasingly calls to me "no more flowers" whenever he sees me with the
shovel. I only plan to enlarge an existing bed this summer. You
know, I need more room to plant rebloomers.
