Kool..here is my MAUNA LOA 1926 By Berry of California we found it being neglected in a circle of weeds way out in the countryside at a place called Irish potato road here in between Salisbury and Concord, North Carolina. The people who were living on the farm property were a couple only about 20 years old that had told us they just moved in, and they had there hands full with small children running around and could care less about the iris and told us to dig what we want so we dug a clump of about 3 large fan division size. It is now the Tallest Historic we grow on the property topping out at 58" tall!

first 2 pics Blooming in our back yard up against our grill. The last 2 pics before we rescued them, just incase if we stopped, and they wouldnt part with some, we could document them.
