RE: Ordering iris was: bio David Schaffe



Ditto.  I favour smaller growers too.  Not too many Canadian growers though=
, =
and phytosanitary certificates are required from each grower in the U.S. so =
=
I am limiting myself to one U.S. grower a year--if they even ship to Canada.=
 =
 I'm looking forward to ordering from Superstition next year.

 Maybe it is just me, but I would never order again from a nursery
 (big or small) that sent me moldy rhizomes. This is not a slam at
 Schreiners since I have *never* ordered from them since I see no
 need to when the smaller growers (isn't everyone smaller then the
 big S.?) have what I want and their specials are just as good.
 Actually better from what I could glean from Schreiner's and
 Cooley's '97 catalogs which BTW cost $5 each but worth it to
 see the pretty pix. :)

 Cool again but the Japanese irises are loving it and blooming in
 profusion. Lilies just started - lilium and daylilies. Hurry up...

 Welcome David to *the* list,

 Ellen G.
