Re: CAT: Too many iris?


From: S&C Rust <srust@fidnet.com>

Perry, don't you think it is too much to be able to suggest just two
iris?!  I love SILVERADO too, and used it last year to cross with some
of Ben Hager's newer blue rebloomers.  But, I had to try twice to
establish it.  Couldn't ask for better the second time around.  DUSKY
CHALLENGER, everyone's clear favorite, has done poorly for me for three
years now.  I don't think it has even bloomed.  The rhizomes are small
and increase has been sparce.  Those on either side do great, but maybe
it is in a bad pocket of soil, or something!  I will try moving it, it
will surely do better.  My aunt has, and swears by, JOYCE TERRY.
STELLAR LIGHTS is one I could mention...it is very tough, always wins a
blue and higher and it is distinctive.
