Re: Matching Names to Plants

Don't feel bad Rosalie, I have a bed that i tried to randomize the plantings in, nothing in a straight row. I draw so badly that I am now waiting for them to bloom so I can redraw my map with the help of a photo. At least I know exactly what I put in there and within a couple of plants where. But it is still going to be interesting. One thing in my favor, I had just started to collect iris and they should all be very different looking. VBG These are plants that the geese stole the labels off of almost as fast as I put them out. Geese don't grab and drop either. When they don't like something they frequently take it to the pond to drown it.

  This is a BIG problem - and a helpful solution after the horse has been 
  stolen is to have a written down  design of the plot with names of irises.  
  Sometimes the relationship with a  known iris whose label remained, can 
  settle a lot of questions.  An interesting thing is that one of our new 
  members whose garden was flooded called attention to how important this was!  
  I try to do that myself, and have a fit when something comes up showing that  
  there is an iris that was not included! ! 
  Now my problem is trying to match up  my slides taken in Memphis with the 
  notes I took!  Rosalie nr Baltimore zone  7  ryfigge@aol.com
