OT BIO

Hello Iris-L people,

My name is Barbara Jackson and I have been lurking on this list for quite
awhile now and finally decided to "come out" so to speak and introduce myself.

I garden in a challenging region of south western Manitoba just north of the
Manitoba/North Dakota border in Zone 3.  I have had iris as long as I have
been gardening (more years than I hate to admit), but they were always sort
of just there and taken for granted.  Don't have any idea what their names
are but they sure are good to look at for an all too brief period of time in
late May.  

Since reading the posts to this list, my interest has been piqued and I fear
I am hooked.  I am in the process of getting organized enough to enquire
about CIS and AIS memberships.  Are there any others trying to grow Iris in
such inhospitable climes?

Besides iris, my other garden interests include daylillies, lilium and
almost any other plant I can get to survive in my cold climate.

I have learned an awful lot so far and anticipate I will learn even more as
I go along.

Barb
