    i can believe that, but i just love the color, hard to believe you can grow them in a pot there.

    Fred can, but I can't. I sat with him at a meeting at City Hall last night and he told me he would give me some other iris. I told him I had some from Chris' yard in Oakland and after the first bloom I could never get blossoms again. I finally gave them back to Chris and he has them growing at his Pinole house. He also gave some to a friend who planted them at a nursing home in Alameda where her mother-in-law was a patient. I think I don't get enough sun by my mobile home.
