Re: CULT:In Search of "Perfect" TB Irises

Could somebody tell me how EVERYTHING PLUS won the Dykes' Medal??
How many still grow it? It is a 90's iris!!!
A Dykes' should be an 'iris for the ages,' but what about E P? (no
offense to the hybridizer)
I grow EVERYTHING PLUS but I really don't know why I keep it.
It never seems to do anything...maybe one bloomstalk a year.
It mostly just sits there.
Betty, if you are forming a wishlist I have to admit that I have latched
on to this thread and I'm looking for "perfect" iris to order.
In my growing conditions the following iris have done well:
TENNESSEE GENTLEMAN Innerst 1991
OMINOUS STRANGER Innerst 1993
CONTINUITY Innerst 1994
TINTED CRYSTAL Hager 1988
SKATING PARTY Gaulter 1983
SPEED LIMIT Lauer 1992
WENCH L. Miller 1993
And, of course JESSE'S SONG, CONJURATION, DUSKY
CHALLENGER, and SILVERADO.
