Bill,
   Great quote!   I had to chuckle myself at the Lowe's near here...they had 
the iris in shade and the "shade fanfare" hosta in full sun.  Wouldn't you 
think the name would tip them off?   Anyway...I have to give them credit for 
actually having potted iris that were labeled by the supplier with a picture 
tag...many were blooming true to their tag's name so that's at least a step 
in the right direction.   One or two were even noted to be intermediate 
beardeds!!  Will wonders never cease.

zone 8 of S.C. where cooler temps have suspended bloom for now., except Moon 
Journey which only has two buds...but then again, I did move it twice(not of 
my choice).
