Now - - the big question.................... which ones of these would be your #1 and #2 favorite seedlings - - if you were to choose? :-)

I'll start.
My number one choice would be seedling #15,
and my number 2 choice would be (it's a tough choice) seedling # 13.

Margie - do your unofficial "polls" go back to Mid-America? Gosh I hope so! It would be great if we were influencing possible introductions. LOL

Oro Valley, AZ(Zone 9a)

Hi langbr,
I e-mailed Paul Black and told him what I was doing and sent him the links so he could watch too. I suspect he may be watching - - possibly during the times he (and maybe Tom too) is taking a break from working on and putting together the new Mid-America's 2005 iris catalog. I hope they are influenced some too - - many of Paul's and Tom's irises are the best I've seen and I hope they are introduced. (smiles)

Palmyra, IL(Zone 5b)

16 then it a toss up between 12,13 & 18.

Willamette Valley, OR(Zone 8a)

Palmyra, IL(Zone 5b)

opps gotta add 20 the more I look at it.lol.
The question is how much are they.lol.I want some of each.Jody

Oro Valley, AZ(Zone 9a)

These are just seedlings at this point Jody, and not yet introduced to the public. Once Paul and Tom decides which ones will be worthy and ready for introduction - then we'll see what they will go for. New Introductions are usually pricely to begin with, but with each passing year (as the plant multiplies and produces more of that variety) the prices go down.
