Having lurked for a couple of days, perhaps I too should do the decent thing
and introduce myself.
I live in Hampshire, UK, which is roughly halfway along the bottom bit of
England. Temperatures here are quite mild for the latitude (I think that's
the right one -?) with winter minimum temperature of -8C and summer maximum
about 32C. Mostly though it hovers around the median.
Personal Iris interests centre upon the more alpine species, but the bearded
ones in the border do their bit too! Recent acquisitions include I. attica
and I. ruthenica nana, but my pride & joy are my I. cycloglossa which I
raised from seed and which haven't even flowered yet... Maybe 1996?
Ever hopefully - Ian Black
PS Tom - are you serious about scouring the _world_ for I. balkana & I.
reichenbachii? I. reichenbachii features regularly on the AGS & SRGC
seedlists. Probably NARGS too, but I'm not a member. You might find some
of the seeds were balkana - I think they would be classified together (?)
PPS NARGS seedlist is on the WWW.
