I might be backing up, but I see that people are introducing themselves, so I
will too. My name is Kathy Guest and I am tickled pink that Tom has started
this list. I've been on the Daylily list since late summer and it's a
wonderful medium.
I do my iris gardening in East Aurora, NY (suburb of Buffalo) and, although I
grow every kind of iris that will tolerate our climate, I have special
affection for the beardless types. I was just elected RVP of Region 2 and I
was chair of the WNY Iris group for 4 years. Our philosophy is "this is
supposed to be fun", so we try to keep a good mix of education and
socializing in our club.
I belong to the Japanese and Iris sections and I'm considering the species.
I love the modern varieties best and have only a couple of 'historics'. My
screen name is "Irisborer" because my sweet husband, Leonard, (a
non-gardener) was present at a talk I gave once where I mentioned the
"dreaded iris borer", he thought I said "iris BORE" and said that this
describes me! He struck me funny.
In the Daylily group that I subscribe to, one member keeps a copy of all the
bios and they are sent to each new member. Tom, if you like, I will
volunteer to do this task.
