Hi, my name is Donald Mosser, and I'm an iris addict.:-) I've only been
growing bearded iris about two and a half years, but I'm already hooked. I
live in North Augusta, SC (mostly pine trees and sand in Zone 7 or 8,
depending on the source). I have a small collection of mixed sized bearded
Iris, most purchased from Schreiner's. I'm anxiously awaiting the bloom of
my first dwarf bearded iris "Making Eyes". However, I hope that late frost
in my area haven't stressed the poor thing to the point of not blooming it's
first year here.
I am interested in trying some Japanese Iris, Louisiana Iris, small species
iris, and more dwarf bearded iris. I prefer fragrance and color to
flamboyancy and size, in any type of flower. Any recommendations for Must
Have! iris cultivars or species which fit my preferences would be greatly
appreciated. Like any other new iris grower and newbie to the internet, I'll
be mostly ears, after this initial introductory message (at least until I've
increased my knowledge and experience with iris cultivation and use of the
Internet).
