I’m very happy things worked out though and we didn’t have to sell it after all. Between the money from my flowers and my husband working a second job, we pulled ourselves out of the hole we were in. Anyway, not much of my beautiful collection is left – I went from having over 800 iris cultivars to around 100 scraggly survivors. My best new cultivars and all the bubbly, vibrant and dramatic ones I loved so much went quickly last fall when I offered up everything I had for super cheap prices so that all of them would find new homes. I am very eager to get back into hybridizing again. If you have some nice irises or daylilies you can share with me in return for postage or for very low pricing, I’ll be more than grateful to you. I’m hoping for some seedling beauties, recent introductions and other nice cultivars that have good characteristics and parent potential. I love anything bubbly, wavy, with ruffles or lace, and I’m awed by dramatic, vivid, dark and vibrant colors. In the future I plan to share my best seedlings and new introductions with contributors when I’m able to return the favor. Please send whenever it’s best for you. I’m ready to plant anytime.
