reply to welcomes

Greetings to all at iris-talk,
 
Many thanks for the notes of welcome received.  Bernard and I awoke this morning and made a visit to our email letterbox to find lots of hellos and introductions.  What a way to start the day!  We've had an extra bounce in our steps all day and can hardly wait to get up again tomorrow morning to see who had left a message!  Once I learn how to drive this thing a bit better we will be able to get our web page up and running with lots of photos of our recent releases for you to enjoy.
 
IRIS HAVEN has a US agent for our Australian-bred Louisiana Iris already and many of you may have a copy of the Lone Star Iris Gardens Catalogue in your possession.  The photos of Bernard and I in there are MOST complimentary - I wish that I looked so young again!  Our good friend Farron Campbell from Lone Star is endeavouring to promote our Iris to you fastidious Iris junkies. 
 
I hope that we can get to chat with many of you in the future.  Talks of Dykes Medals, shows and iris rust is fascinating and of universal interest.  Did you know that we have our own Dykes Medal here in Australia and that the NSW Region (to which we belong) hosts the Sydney Louisiana Iris Spectacular which is an international garden competition for Louisiana Iris only - it's a mini "Premio Firenze" for LA's and has been running since 1988? Such greats as Mertzweiller, Mary Dunn and Dorman Haymon have entered and won awards.
Chat soon.  Heather. I*@pip.com.au
