I had forgotten about Ensata. Yes they are up there with wonderful
pictures.
Also, I forgot to mention Chuck Chapman. No pictures but the largest
listing I've ever seen of medians. A lot of rebloomers and historicals
too. And Canadian.
Ellen's listing is one reason I'm on iris-L. More sources!

The one catalogue that I find the most interesting is
'Adamgrove'...
pix and info on all bearded classes (not just one). I
didn't order
from them but love the catalogue. :)
A little catalogue that is also fun to browse is
'Hermit Medlar's
Walk' in Massachusetts run by the Godfreys. They also
have all bearded
classes and pix as well as info. Granted the pix are
not big and
glossy but they are there. A few species thrown in.
'Ohio Gardens' has to be the most complete re Miniature
Tall Bearded
and some Border Bearded *and* bearded species. Alas, no
pix. :(
Of course, 'Ensata Gardens' has to be up there with
their wonderful
pictures of Japanese irises...and they also list
Siberian (no pix).
With the exception of 'Joe Pye Weed's Garden' with a
few black and
white pix, I don't know of any Siberian specialists
that have pix.
Other good ones: Riverside Iris Gardens, Mid-America
Gardens (pix),
and Draycott Gardens (beardless only).
Cheers,
Ellen
