<< Linda Mann has declined the offer to establish her own test garden on the
grounds that she lacks the energy, time and space. Fair enough, but there
is a point to be made, and it is that EVERY IRIS GARDEN SHOUILD BE A TEST
GARDEN, in the sense that we should all make simple, but systematic,
observations on the iris we grow and share that information with fellow
irisarians.

I agree 100%. We could develop a form of some king with all the details we
want recorded, besides the obvious ones: increases, blooms, rot, etc.
We keep records anyway, we just have to make them more complete.
What does everybody else think?
