When I posted earlier today about my 'lost' irises, I had not
intended to enlist the aid of the Hips office at this busy holiday
season. And, since the list could be considered lengthy, I would
not burden any one person with researching these cultivars.
Actually, some have already been researched and have been
missing for several years now. Some have been mentioned in this
medium before, though not in this context and others are not
historic.
With the expanded readership we now have on iris-talk, I am in
hopes somebody might be growing some of my 'lost' irises in their
gardens and perhaps can make a trade. Here are some of my
favorite 'lost' irises. If you know of the whereabouts of any of these,
please contact me off list. Thanks!
