I love having sculptures in the garden also. We like creating our own. First try was my design Mouth of Truth. She came out pretty good for beginners. Then saw "The Mouth of Truth" in Rome...had to have one. Also created two statues from Salvador Dali painting. I say create your own and your own lore. It is your world to create. Have fun. You can see mine...link is on my page. We have loved creating and still creating ours.

I have a few historic iris that I am going to be moving soon. kochii, pallida, albecans and a peach one I have not Id yet.

Robert - If your grant has some additional funds you may want to purchase a gas chromatograph to do head space analysis of the fragrance. There are some good articles on rose fragrance back in old American Rose Society annuals, and of course many others and more recent ones as well. With a chromatograph, you can disect all of the components of a fragrance as well as quantitate them. That way you can reproduce any rose fragrance that you smell. I was amazed to learn how many different chemical components actually comprize a single fragrance. Just a thought, perhaps beyond HS chemistry, but I wouldn't be surprized that something at that level might be taught. The folks at an organization in NJ (perhaps something like International Fragrances etc.) once purchased 30 different roses (2 each) from me that I could choose. They clearly were cataloging fragrances chemically. Best, Nick

This company has an excellent reputation on the Garden Watchdog, you might want to look there. "Offering unique, endangered heirloom bulbs from the 1950s back to the 1200s, many of which are available nowhere else." Just passing along info, not affiliated with any company.
