Hi Rusty,  I have been reading all the letters and all I can say is stay
with us. I am new to the group and have only written in once before.  It
is so nice to see someone your age who is so interested in iris.  I have
been growing iris over 40 years.  I had a friend and her mother who got
me started on iris and when I went to their home and saw all the iris, I
was soaking up the knowledge like a sponge soaks up water.
So hang in there, on the average you will find no better people then
iris people.  Dee Krueger, Rosendale, Wisconsin.
