Hi Dave,
You're probably thinking about McMillan's farm. It is near London Ontario.
There are lots of places closer to home though -- not that I am discouraging
you from going. It is a long trip and we seem to go about every other year.
It is a mother-son venture.
There are lots of iris fanatics locally with extensive iris gardens. If I
can get myself organized and find some time, I'll be putting together a few
slides of the AIS convention for a mini-meeting of local iris fanatics. My
original plan was to schedule an end of October meeting but that won't be
happening -- I guess that I'm aiming for end of November now.
Drop me a line, if you just want to connect and natter about irises and look
at catalogues.
