Having been on Tuesday....and made a point of finding that famous French Iris nursery. "Romance" is OK but I prefer the similar but pure white "Frost and Flame" However "Noctambule" is spectacular and I want one. -- Regards Bob H 17mls W. of London.UK |

Having been on Tuesday....and made a point of finding that famous French Iris nursery. "Romance" is OK but I prefer the similar but pure white "Frost and Flame" However "Noctambule" is spectacular and I want one. They are all spectacular but I admit that I've never liked irises, my mother had all sorts of colours in our tiny garden and they didn't impress me one bit even as a pre-10 year old. We have some blue ones in our garden, no idea where they came from. It seems hard to dig them up so they're left but the blooms last such a short time and then look scruffy (like the rest of the garden!) that I leave them. And I reckon that if they've succeeded in growing from nothing in our poor soil and despite the scratching ravages of the hens they deserve to stay. But I don't like them. Flags, however, are a different matter and I'd love to have them in our pond. one year we did, then they left :-( And I've never wanted to go to the Chelsea Show. I did stints at the Harrogate Great Autumn Flower Show for years and watched with wonder as exhibitors groomed every petal of crysanthemums with cotton buds. That's not real life ... There must be something wrong with me :-) Mary 2 miles from the middle of Leeds, UK |
