Re: TB: Buying for names


There's one category of names that seems always to be in high demand - 
names including proper nouns like Jan, Doris, or Laurie (g).  I've read 
numerous requests over the last couple years from folks looking for 
irises named after themselves, friends, family members, or pets. I've 
purchased several irises for that reason myself and will no doubt 
continue to do so.  If I were a hybridizer with the primary goal of 
selling LOTS of irises, I'd be assigning a proper noun to the name of 
every iris that left my garden.

Thank goodness I'm not a hybridizer, eh?  ;-)

Laurie
