I have reposted this item as Ellen had made mention of it very recently and
the SSI are looking for more participants in the area of display gardens.

Subject: [sibrob] New SSI Display Garden List


For all you SIBROBers who are also members of The Society for Siberian
Irises, please take a couple of minutes and complete the following so that
your garden will be listed on the current Display Garden List. Our current
listing of Display Gardens has become obsolete and is in the process of
being updated.  It is to the benefit of SSI that our new list have as many
gardens as possible in many geographic locations. Some SSI members in the
past have been hesitant to participate in our Display Garden Program because
they thought participants needed to be growing hundreds of Siberian Irises,
or they needed to be an Siberian iris expert.  This is not true! While we
certainly welcome those types of individuals and gardens this is certainly
NOT the case!

So, what type of people and gardens are we looking for to volunteer and
participate in  the Siberian Iris Display Garden Program?  If you can answer
yes to the following questions, then you can consider yourself and your
garden as a viable candidates:

** Do you  grow one or more Siberian Irises well?
** Do you mind telling others the secrets of your success in growing
Siberian Irises?
** Are you willing  to open your garden to strangers and show them your
Siberian irises?
** Are you enthusiastic about growing Siberian Irises?
** Are you willing to complete a questionnaire each year so that we can
evaluate our program?
** Do you become excited when Siberian Irises start to bloom?

If you answered yes to all of the above questions then you are an ideal
candidate for our Display Garden Program and should send the below
information to me so that I can include you on our list.

Display Gardens previously on the list who wish to remain so need to update
and verify their information. One new section added is “Bloom Time”. Send
the below information to me via letter, postcard, or e-mail! I will
acknowledge all receipts.  I hope that all of you will consider becoming
part of this program. A revised list will be published in the next issue of
‘The Siberian Iris’.
