Re: OT:Walking Iris

From: Pat Bass <bpbass@gj.net>

Hi!  Thanks to all who told me where to see the walking iris.  The next thing is to
see if I could grow them here in this dry climate where the average humidity in the
summer is 15%.  Would probably have to grow them in pots and mist them regularly.
Still don't know where I could purchase them, but no doubt some of you sweet people
out there can tell me.  Thanks so much.   Pat in dry, cold but beautiful
Colorado--in the 20's last night but up in the 50's today.
