Thanks so much for your reply dennis. That makes a lot of sense. Not having
had any experience with first year siberian seedlings, I had no idea.
Fortunately I have Dr. McEwan's Siberian Iris book on order, and will be
able to read up on such things!
I am not disappointed. I am looking forward to seeing the seedlings, as I
like the parent. Next Spring, I might try a few tentative deliberate crosses
within and between these species. In the meantime, I will concentrate on
making them permanent garden beds, and getting them out of their pots.
Thanks again,
Cheers, Jan in Australia, zone 8ish
