Seeing all these TDF pix. makes me want to move Winnipeg about 1.5 hours due South.

Then our mortgage interest would be tax deductable too. Wouldn't mind if our Pro present US administration PM would copy you guys in that regard.

Brigitte~Yes, co-op is coming! I just don't know exactly when. Most likely mid-July.

Inanda~Aitken's does do international shipping, but I'm sure you already know that. Those international charges can sure add up!

Oh my....they are wonderful. Thank you for posting!

Hi Flowerfrenzy,

The Aitkens are originally from Manitoba, near Brandon. We (NLIS) have ordered from them in the past, but not this year.

Am not purchasing too much this year, mainly because lack of space. Am almost at the point of digging up my yellow pseudacorus and some large clumps of lilies, putting on the blvd. with a sign "FREE, please take and plant'. LA lilies really multiply fast.

So many of us live in town, on small city lots that we are beautifying the local community college gardens with lilies and iris. They have a hort. programme there so the students can learn how to treat iris and lilies.

Especially love Stella Niagra...Do SI's and JI's suffer from iris borer? I am currently struggling with this little demon...

caitlinsgarden~Yes, JIs and SIBs can get borers as well. If you apply a granular pesticide properly, though, they are easily controlled.
