arilbred catalogs! Now I finally am getting somewhere! Bruce, sounds like
you've been down the same road as I have. John, thanks for the information
of Kary's Iris Garden. Jan, WELCOME REWARD is a tetraploid and a good
breeder, that is all I know about it. My husband Steve was in Tucson just
a few weeks ago! His folks live there in the winter. John Jones, I will
go to Tom Little's site. He has already helped my daughter Stephanie a
great deal to understand chromosome counts and fertility. Anner, thank you
for pointing out that I had indeed overlooked the ASI catalog listing!
Cindy Rust, Zone 5b, Missour, looks like rain!
