Hi friends ,
this is picture of an iris I dug up from around the foundation of my grandmothers house 25 years ago . Her house burned down and she was killed in the fire . it was a long time ago but I had the presence of mind to dig up her irises before the house was bulldosed for a new construction . I have been the keeper of these irises for all these years and several cousins have been given clumps to grow in thier yards over the years and now a new generation of home owners/great grandchildren are starting to want a clump . I decide this year I was going to try and ID them this is the first one to open and I was hopeing some of you iris folks could help me out .
thanks laura
