Today I just ordered 2 rhyzomes of iris fulva "Marvell Gold" from Terra Nova,
a gold/yellow variety of the "normally" brick red fulva flower.  And I also
placed an order for some cristata, versicolor, virginica var. shrevei, and a
white setosa, all from Fox Brook.  I'm waiting with baited breath!!!  :)
