Bob & Beth Matney raised the question of whether Parks' iris names have been
registered:
Parks is, indeed, a "reputable" company and my preferred source of vegetable
seeds. HOWEVER . . . .
Some years ago, I was approached as a potential source of arilbred stock for
Parks. The catch was, they wanted varieties that would be "exclusive" to Parks
-- not registered varieties that anyone can sell once they have been introduced.
Needless to say, I declined.
Nevertheless, I still think that Parks is an excellent company from which to
order seeds and supplies. I just don't recommend them as a source of iris
plants.
