Thanks for your comments everyone. I find this the most exciting aspect of growing iris. I hope you folks in colder climates will show some of your seedlings as your season goes full swing.

IrisMA... Thanks for your suggestion on sending guest plants to the next AIS Convention. I'm sure I'll do that eventually, but just having fun right now. I have several that I've given enough time to prove themselves here, and would like to see how they do elsewhere. What better than as a quest at the next convention. - I hope you were treated well while in Texas. Sorry you missed out on some of the early bearded blooms. Our season starts in late March, and is mostly finished by early May. Looks like it may last longer this year, possibly due to our unusually cooler weather. I'm sure the season in Austin is a little earlier.

Here's another of mine that bloomed for the first time this week. It's growing in a pot and the tag is missing, so it will have to be an unknown, but I'm pretty sure it's a cross of Cherubs Smile X Conjuration.

Thanks Again, Dan
