For 20-25 years I ordered exclusively from Schreiners and a few from Cooleys. That is probably why it looks like a mini Schreiners. Later tonight I will look up those purple iris that are your favorites. I may not have quite enough. We discard some of our iris but we put a lot of them into share rows and during the iris season visitors can tour the iris and go home with a few from the share rows. I don't mail or sell them because my husband has Alzheimer's disease and he does all the digging and takes care of the orchard. I can't ask him to do more. <br /> Thank you for your interest in the American Iris Societies blog and particularly to mine. I appreciate it so much. Happy gardening.

Tha...Sophie, (one of my granddaughter's names)<br />Thank you Sophie for that additional information. I think Angelique is an iris that shouldn't be lost to the world. Thank you for reading the American Iris Society's blog and in particularly for reading mine. I appreciate the attention that you paid to it.

You certai...Purple is the best color there is! 😄 <br />You certainly do have a lot! I love all variations and shades as well, from magentas and raspberry colors to the purple blacks. A few of my favorite pink/purples lately, are Seven Of Nine, and Kick Up Your Skirts. Old favorites are Hook, Gypsy Romance and Sultry Mood. <br />Dawn, you don't sell or mail irises? What happens to all those lovely rows when they need to be divided? <br />Your fields look like a mini Schreiners! Such a beautiful sight! 😊naomimade@comcast.nethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07241725043148259100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7696495401112275586.post-67881483972266612812015-05-23T09:59:44.824-07:002015-05-23T09:59:44.824-07:00Bonjour,
