Re:CULT:Last Men Standing


I am in zone 6 and I still have several Iris with buds on them 
waiting to open.  This is the first year the majority has been 
planted so I really can't compare to previous years.  Seakist, 
Midnight Oil, Study in Black and Lemon Mist all opened for the first 
time this week.  Party Queen was fixing to open yesterday afternoon 
and it had bloomed a couple weeks ago too.  Ceasers Brother (SI) is 
still blooming.  I had a pseudocorous (I know thats spelled wrong) 
open yesterday and I am starting to see a hint of color on my JI's.  
Off topic BUT my asiatic lilies are blooming and more are opening 
each day and my stella daylilies had its first bloom yesterday.
