19. Back in the early 80's

I used to order from Schreiner's every fall. The kaleidoscope of colors is incredible. And iris are incredibly hardy tolerating temperatures below 0° and above 110° and months of drought.

24. I can understand your good opinion of Schreiner's markdochartaigh, I checked out their online catalog. Beautiful!

When I saw your hilarious reply, irisblue, I gave a wide smile. Called my wife over to show her and she laughed out loud!
I am very glad you like your picture.

10. Years ago I lived in an area where

they were plentiful in peoples yards. Morning Glory also. My paternal great grandmother had a huge half moon shaped tulip bed. That's back in the days when lilacs were common along with Honeysuckle. Been scared off by the bees many times as a child.

[George McGovern]

21. Gosh moniss -- I take it you're not a fan of bees! I'm glad you like the picture.

[moniss]

22. I'm OK now but

if a little kid gets stung once they treat all bees as suspect.

[George McGovern]

25. Me too. I remember when!
