Someone just informed me that according to AIS rules, Louisa's Song (Blyth,
1999/2000) is not eligible for any AIS awards because it was introduced in
Australia a few months before it was introduced in the US.
That's disappointing to hear. So even if (theoretically, I'm just
exaggerating to make a point) everyone agreed it was the best iris ever, it
couldn't even qualify for the "100 most popular TB's" Symposium? That
doesn't sound right. I agree it should have to be registered with AIS, and
probably compete at a disadvantage (based on first intro date rather than
USA introduction); but a great iris is a great iris and should be honored as
such. I never discriminate against foreigners, regardless of their
breeding.
