This is another iris I killed several years ago, but confess that I planted
it under a walnut tree (which doesn't seem to hurt I. pallida any, exept from
the shade) and the source was one of those reviled generic mail order
nurseries. I have always thought the pictures were pretty so might try it
again. Lloyd, Julie, Claire, anybody else, do you know how SOSTENIQUE does
in the southeast?
BATMAN seems extraordinarily vigorous - new for me this year. (Just to throw
in a little contrast to SOSTENIQUE).
