A different list of five


It's been interesting to see the irises people list as their favorites.  When 
looking through my own list of sibs I grow I found very few Tets.  But the 
few I would not do without are:

Dance Ballerina Dance -(I was surprised to see this registered as a Tet)
Jewelled Crown
Windwood Spring
Orville Fay

My five Diploids I would not be without are:  (this was tough!)

Springs Brook ( I think this one is my all around favorite in my 
garden)-gorgeous
Coronation Anthem
Indy
Shaker's Prayer
Lake Keuka

Okay, I'm going to cheat and take Ruffled Velvet and Caesar's Brother along 
too....hahaha

I chose all of the above for their high performance (consistent bloom, good 
growth habits, decent foliage) in my garden and their beauty, of course.
