More gardening stuff....

Lifted and divided three of my German irises today. The "Dover", the "Starship Enterprise" and...that third one whose name I can't remember. Left the variegated and the Siberians in the ground.

Will split up the Starship Enterpise and the Dovers, to take some to family in Dallas area during/after Fencon. Free irises, YAY! ;o)

Now that I know how they grow, I will completely re-do where they're planted in the yard, particularly since the Starship Enterprise grew to about 5 feet tall. It was in front before, and you couldn't even see iris #3 over it. (Little 3 footer). So much to do in fall....

I would love some. Have a source?

(I'm afraid I don't have much in the way pf perennials to trade, unless you're hankering for some snowdrops. Those, I have in spades.

And a good crop of forget-me-nots, but they're rooted, not bulbs, so I can't imagine how to mail them in a manner they would survive.

I can't grow FMNots down here. Too hot.

A source? The things propogate like bunnies....I'll slip 3 in the mail this week.
