The Iris Club of Southeast Michigan will host the AIS Region 6 Spring Meeting

irises under consideration for introduction.
Please observe the following guidelines when you send guest irises:
1. Up to three rhizomes of each variety will be accepted.
2. The guest irises will be accepted from July 1 through August 31, 2001.
3. All official guest bearded irises must be shipped to Guest Iris Chair:
Ken Michalski

4. The name of the variety or seedling number should be clearly marked on
each rhizome. In addition, the following information should accompany each
plant on a separate packing list:
