CULT:SPEC: unguicularis bloom report


From: "Patterson, Dallas" <nye@mail.fidalgo.net>

Christmas came early this year! 

Peeking from beneath the Gypsophila and Campanula is the first I. 
unguicularis, Christmas Iris, bloom of the season in our garden. This is 
the earliest yet we've ever seen this plant bloom here on Puget Sound, 
Washington.

Our goal was to have some iris blooming in every month of the year. Now 
we have overlapping annual seasons <g>? This year's reblooming (TB) 
Immortality has resumed blooming with high 60 degree F. weather this 
week, and the 1999-2000 (SPEC) unguicularis has already joined the parade 
in October. It was last seen blooming in April.
