Hi Kathy,

WELCOME, I think you'll find this group friendly and helpful.  I encourage you to try your hand at hybridizing, nothing could be more fun (well, almost).

Bill

Hello,

This is my introduction to iris-digest.  I grew irises in Amarillo, TX for
about 10 years and worked with the North Plains Iris Society; a fun and
friendly group.  I moved to Santa Fe, NM about 4 years ago and had nowhere to
grow irises until last season.  So, I have about 50 new plants and am eagerly
awaiting May this year.  So far, it has been very difficult to get anything to
grow here. (High altitude, poor, high pH soil, cold dry winters and hot dry
summers.) I've been with the Santa Fe Iris Society here and just got elected
(coerced) to be VP this year.  (In small groups everyone has to take a turn.) 
I'm hoping to retire in the next couple of years and would very much like to
try some hybridizing.  I have been reading 'The World of Iris' and will have
many questions I'm sure.

Well, I guess that's me.
Kathy
