Re: Iris

Hi Lisa,

I know that they are not the bearded kind, but I don't know exactly what
they are.  I have at least 3 different kinds.  The ones that are blooming
are small, white with yellow centers and small lavender.  The ones that
aren't blooming are a little bit larger, medium purple with yellow centers.
They are not really large, just larger than they others.  Guess that shows
everyone how much I know about gardening!!!   :-)
