I could send a picture, if you like, or you could Google "Clyde Redmond iris." Many of the pictures on Google look too purple, and it is hard to get the blue color right in pictures. <BR/><BR/>PatrickAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21620580.post-32516606598056469732007-04-19T10:03:00.000-07:002007-04-19T10:03:00.000-07:00That's cool you can grow Louisianas in Hawaii.

We still have a lot of grass that could be flower beds, so there would be room for one of the Louisiana type here. <BR/><BR/>I love your story of finding a tiny plant, discovering its possibilities and then turning it into a special passalong for your Annie in Austinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14662139490401110432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21620580.post-52272610384705602542007-04-09T22:12:00.000-07:002007-04-09T22:12:00.000-07:00I'm not planning to bring any plants with me.

OK, if you looked deep into the mass of green on the right day, you could find a tiny yellow flower or two, but definately not what it claimed to be.Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12367467798229082341noreply@blogger.com
