Thanks Steve for your kind words on this seedling I-177A.
http://www.televar.com/~irisbuff/i117a.htm This seedling is from Citoyen
X Fancinator. Those that grow Citoyen know it is very luminous when the
sunshine's, putting this luminous border on an iris is very exciting.
Citoyen can be viewed at http://www.televar.com/~irisbuff/citoyen.htm .
I-177A will be put in numerous gardens to be tested and if you see it other
than a web picture you might not think it's that great. We all need to see
irises to make the final decision (growth, branching etc.).
There are lots of ways to number your seedling, but keep it simple. This
is how I do it. The seedling I-177A, the (I) is the year that it bloomed,
the (177) is the cross and the (A) is the first selection in that bunch of
seedlings. You can put any number on a seedling.
Thanks, Merle "This is when the fun starts"
