Donald,
I have a friend whom I met in a snail mail round round robin who sprays
his iris every week the entire year with miracle gro. He lives in
Corona outside of LA. He has only rebloomers and has iris blooming
every week of the year. He does not belong to this list but does have
e-mail. I'm sure he would not mind you contacting him if you are so
inclined. His name is Richard C. Richard and his e-mail is
rcrichards@csupomona.edu
