Hi Tammy, I would love to do a trade with you. Is there anything else on my tiny list you would like...lol.. I found besides the Forsythia and Rose of Sharon, about 5 others on your list. They would be hydrangea,weigela, obedient plant, sweet autumn clemetis, and siberian iris. Let me know. I will send you a box of bamboo roots or anything else you would like off my tiny list...lol.. Kayjones, I wish you would be in my zone too...lol.. sounds like you have alot. I am such a newbie to perennials its not funny. The more I see the more I want! Its a good thing we have alot of acres..so I can plant till my hearts content. Let me know if you would like some bamboo to try. I have mnore then enough to share...lol..

Brock, if anybody is guilty of writing too much, it is I, appreciate your input on the matter. I believe you are correct, it's Chinese or Japanese roof iris aka crested iris (did some googline). I did see zone 5b somewhere which is the colder limit for them, and I definitely think there is a difference b/t 5a and 5b, but I might be able to squeak some things through anyway. Now that is distressing that they may not survive the winter. I just set them out this afternoon, new area where there is no protection, and will have to mulch (or something) for the winter and expect to lose them. There are too many similar in this class to know exactly what to expect. If they make it through the summer, I could pot a few up and bring them inside, but that defeats my purpose as I have enough already to winter inside. They look so nice with that pretty foliage. Yes, I could move some, but I've got scads more plants waiting to be set out. Yes, I agree that some, not all, mail-order retailers exaggerate the zone business because they would lose sales. A topic for another time, tired after setting out 24 plants, used my bulb planter which made things go a little faster. I think I had my tiller set to till and not cultivate, oh well, it had gotten so bad so fast, it needed the extra power, but I'm worried if I could have compromised the roots forming on the Austins I set in there ealier. They should recover.
