Congratulations! Persistence pays. This may be your most productive year,
in terms of 'freeze avoiding' results. Eight pods is still better than no
pods. Even thought they may have been unplanned they were still on target for
your goals.
I found a bee pod on the one ugly new seedling from the Lemon Reflection x
Next Millennium cross. It's doesn't look like it has any seed in it.
Probably won't save it. I still have a dozen or more unplanted bee pods from last
year.
I've kept a list of the irises that managed to bloom after the freeze. I'll
post it later. It doesn't look like I lost many rhizomes to the freeze.
