Greetings All:
The Louisiana Iris season began in mid-December and ended May 7th. with CAJUN
COOKERY, HARLAND K. RILEY & GERRY MARSTELLER as they faded on their last
bloom. Now to manage to keep the seed pods growing and free from worms, etc.
My bearded iris bloom this week. A seedling that was bred in the lower Rio
Grande Valley of Texas. It is a pink with a bright tangerine beard.
Delightful fragrance. It is out of a cross of ETERNAL BLISS X BEVERLY SILLS
(I orginally thought it was VANITY but found my notes). Nothing to cross it
with so I self it and looks like they are going to set.
