Allen McMurtrie's reticulate iris hybrids

As ever one is totally authoritarian or not. A number of members include
their name and also the web address of their nurseries, which I have always
found of interest, I should never have known of their existance otherwise.

I have not been made aware of the results of breeding interesting hybrids
from the general gardening media, though I did get a glimpse in the RHS
magazine. Surely it is the interests of plant lovers to be advised of such
activities, small breeders have no clout commercially to help promote their
results, and a bit of latitude would not be amiss ~ afterall one can always
zapp the email.

Sorry if I stretched the rules there, but I seem to remember lots of
brief announcements of a commercial nature on PBS. And is it really an
advertisement? You can't buy from the information given there: you'll have to do
some homework to figure out how to buy and from whom.I like to know about
things like this, and I'll bet others do, too. There will probably be keen
competition for these bulbs when the time comes, and those with advanced
knowledge are better poised to get what they want.I did it in the spirit of a
service to the membership.
