********Do I need a judge to tell me that a clean snow white iris with
a pure red beard
has acceptable color? And if the judge says it looks ugly and I say it
looks pretty, whose opinion is going to determine whether I buy it or
not?
Any thoughts?
Well, I for one definitely fall into a category all my own. I do not
see beyond the pure awe of the beauty
of anything in bloom. I never worry about is it disease resisitant,
how floriferous it is, etc. I simply enjoy the wonderful scents, and
colors without looking at the sepals or falls or structures I think
I'm pretty lucky because I would hate to ruin my picture-perfect
thoughts of any flowers if I had to start judging them in order to see
them. And in the end, it never matters to me what anyone else says,
I do what pleases me!
Happy here in my little piece of the world, Teresa.
