Lowell beat me to the punch in enthusing about Keith Keppel. I visited
Keith two years ago and walked his seedling beds--fantastic experience.
Last year I indulged myself in several 2001 Keppel intros and got top
quality, fresh plants with very, very generous extras. The plants look
great at this point and I am eagerly awaiting bloom on things like 'Broad
Shoulders' and 'Jersey Cream.' Keith has some fantastic seedling lines
going and some knock-your-socks-off iris in the pipeline.
Strongly recommended!
