Our first daffs bloomed on April 30 which was *early* for us.....
Kathy Guest said she never remembered iris blooming in April in
her garden before..hope that is correct. I never remember daffs
blooming in April in our mountainous Zone 3a - 29 days earlier
than last year.
The bright spot is the MDBs are in fat bud and two, SUSLIK, and
one I. pumila sent to me by Lowell Baumunk, are showing some
color. :)
Another surprise is our new *place* has four different iris patches.
Mostly TBs overrun with weeds and growing like mad with last year's
autumn leaves all over them. Not one nameplate in the new garden.
Cheers,
Ellen
