Thanks for your replies! Signet, I too have had the worst luck with iris that I have planted in the fall (and I have clay soil). Last year I planted 4 different varieties, 3 rhizomes each. I see now that only 2 rhizomes in total survived! UGH! I thought if I found some earlier in the year, I would have better luck (that has been my only other iris planting experience and all survived!) Origami Master - That is a great tip about the brick! I am definitely going to have to try that if I try planting again in the fall. I am totally interested in your offer and hope to hear from you again. Ontnative - Thanks for your advice. I'll try that if I don't have any luck earlier.

Hi Elaine, I'd love to see you get 'Edith Wolford' as a trade, but if you don't locate it, check out T's Flowers & Things. Teresa runs a small mail order business and has had good reviews from GardenWebers...I bought seeds from her this spring...she's very nice to deal with. She has your iris for only $3. And LOTS of other beauties as well! I gave my bearded iris collection to Madspinner up in Whatcom Co. last year...she's been posting pics of ones that're blooming this year. Here's a link to T's. Oh...btw...remember the s. iris we dug/divided at your April plant swap? my piece just had a bloom...cute little guy. I'm already anxious for next spring to come around, just so I can see that contrast in foliage color again! Patrick Here is a link that might be useful: T's Flowers & Things
