Patricia,
I always hesitate before acquiring another Blyth intro, as most that I have
tried have been disappointing in their performance here. However,
ELECTRIQUE in its second year here and AURA LIGHT in it third are doing
quite nicely with adequate bloom and satisfactory increase.

Me, too, Jeff. ELECTRIQUE is gone and AURA LIGHT is down to almost
nothing, but I think I can save it.
ABOUT TOWN was beautiful in Dallas at the convention, but I waited until last
year to buy it. I got a really nice plant, but it refused to grow and died
over winter. Those Blyth irises that do grow here may take five years to
get adjusted and bloom. I am so glad I was patient with MAGHAREE,
EURYTHMIC, and LIPSTICK LIES. They now bloom freely and don't resist being
transplanted. COFFEE WHISPERS is on my want list. Anybody grow it?
