By age 10, I was one of the youngest members of the American Iris Society. Advancement came quickly in the iris ranks. Now, you may be wondering how two people, one in his 70s, the other not yet 12, could become so devoted to a particular plant. If you are, I know for sure that you don't grow these beauties in your garden. If you did, you would immediately recognize their almost irresistible allure.
Few flowers compare to the iris.
And the flowers' incredibly opalescent, velveteen texture absolutely invites caress. All rights reserved.
