Welcome Corte,
Having land in the country is not always fun. More plants = more weeds
= more work = more of everything. Good & bad. Sometimes, like during
bloom season I love living in the country. Sometimes, like during
weeding, or after a big wind storm (that leaves my unprotected field
grown iris stripped bare) I would love to live in town. Water bills or
well repairs. Decisions, decisions (-:
Anyway welcome to the iris list and hope you learn a lot and have as
good a time with all these wonderful people as I have.
