LEMON POP that Walter Moores mentioned is an IB.
I do agree that the Dykes should and will soon go to another
class of irises...I predict that a Siberian will get the nod
within 5 - 7 years. My bus seat-mate for 2 days was Dave Schriener

who thought it would be sooner so I happily revised my prediction.
Cheers,
Ellen
