RE: Blue iris


You're right, Dorothy, I was forgetting Sapphire Hills.  It would be 
interesting to see that one together with Wenatchee Skies.  Their tenure in my 
garden was several years and several hundred miles apart, and I have trouble 
mentally comparing them.

Barb, in Santa Fe, where it never rains in January, but that's what it's doing 
right now (and a week ago it wasn't even getting over freezing!)

Question for all:  Is Wenatchee Skies bluer than Sapphire Hills?  That is the
iris I think of when I want BLUE.  How about some others that are bluer? 


Also, Can anyone comment on  BLUE VALLEY (K. Smith, 1947) or EXOTIC BLUE
(L.F.Randolph,  1958)  Does anyone know if/where these might be available?
 Thanks to all!
