I went to MO BOT this morning, specifically to look at iris.
Disappointing. But then, they have only one area for iris compared to
3 - 4 times that much for day lilies. Wonder why that is?
I'd guess that only about 1/10th of the iris were in bloom. Many had
no buds at all. Some will be in bloom next week. All in all, not worth
going to see. I walked aorund the rest of the garden just to make sure
I wasn't missing more iris. There's a bit of it at the Kemper demo
gardens (say, 5 varieties) but not much elsewhere.
I agree, their daylily beds are great. Full with many, many
varieties.
