Mark, I purchased this book awhile ago, and like it very much (of course, I
never met an iris book I didn't like--though some are frustrating!)
Glasgow covers all kinds of stuff, including laevigata, evansias,
louisianas. The many pictures are extra nice; good color and large enough
so that details are easily seen.
Now, don't tell us it didn't even freeze last night.
(Trying to be cheerful, though very sore from shoveling 8 inches of the
heaviest d--- snow I've ever lifted.)
