Laurie,

I agree with you about the TBI surviving cold and harsh weather. We have very harsh weather at times and those that do live to bloom year after year are so beautiful. We have purshased more than 110 different TBI plants in the past 15 years, almost 99% are from Cooley's Iris Gardens in OR. There are probably only 75-80 still alive and thriving. As many years as we've raised iris, it still floors me that there are so many named varities out there!

My DH was born in MN, moved to CA with parents when 10 years old, said he never wanted to see snow again. We moved from AZ to WA and back to the high country of AZ. Now he loves using the snowblower. I guess your dislikes and like change as you grow older. LOL
