It may be January, but this one isn't waiting. It has the advantage of a cold frame, and that little bit of bother is certainly worth a reward like this. There is a brief video attached to this blog entry: the quality seems very poor to me now, but sometimes these blog videos improve in time. The quality of the original video is fine, but the quality gets reduced for blogging purposes (or did I select the wrong settings?). Its bigger relative Iris unguicularis has been shy about flowering so far this year, but I see budded sprouts pushing up. http://mcwort.blogspot.com/2017/01/… Jim McKenneyMontgomery County, Maryland, USA, USDA zone7, where a noisy flock of geese just flew over (in the dark!). _______________________________________________ pbs mailing list pbs@lists.ibiblio.org http://pacificbulbsociety.org/list.php http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/
