Linda,
It's true we were all smiling at and around you that day. Not because we
found you amusing, but because we remembered being there. We were nudging
each other and murmering things like, " Yep, she's got the fever. Classic
case." And we were right. We old timers recognize the symptoms of iris
fever.
Now, tell me you don't go thru a depression for a couple of weeks at the end
of bloom season. And don't we grow rebloomers because we refuse to give up?
