RE: Looking for Good Parents


Hi John

Iron Eagle, Barbara My Love and Bride's Blush are wonderful parents. Barry
Blyth has used Decadence a lot, with great results.
I'm surprised you have Timbertone, as very little of it had been sent to
USA. I've not had much success with it as a parent.

Subject: [iris] Looking for Good Parents

I'm new to the hobby of hybridizing irises and am trying to decide on 
some irises to add to my garden for that purpose. The process is 
pretty overwhelming due to the large number to choose from.  My main 
interest is TB although I do have a fewFollowing is a partial list of 
some that I'm interested in.  If any of you have had good ( or bad ) 
experiences using any of these as pollen or pod parents I'd like to 
hear from you.


Best Regards and thanks in advance,
