Mark, I will be really interested to hear how this does. If it dies send
it to me and maybe I could resusitate it. I'm listening too hard to the
discussions on buying dead irises in plastic bags and how to get them
going again. If it lives I hope you will send a picture. Actually I've
got some Ivvs seedlings coming into their second year this spring so I
might have pictures myself.
