| Kickapoo Kangaroo - never saw an Iris like that before. Awesome. I went greenhouse hopping with a friend today and didn't see any bearded Iris, only Japanese. |

| Kickapoo Kangaroo is a Kasparek into. He has the most off beat broken colors and strange patterns. I have quite afew of them. |

| Just stunning! My iris blossoms tend to rot quickly with the spring rains. I've resigned myself to enjoying people's pics more than my own garden. lol |
|
| I was looking at Rio Rojo the other day, the colour looks absolutely beautiful!! Is it a fast spreader, or more moderate? |

| We have been having lots of rain also, more than a week and a half of it. I noticed indivual blooms don't tend to last as long as the constant rain really does them in quicker. But they still look beautiful blooming :-) Rio Rojo is about the same as all the others I bought from Schreiners. They just grow! This is the second year of blooming for them all and they will all need to be divided this summer. But then I don't leave lots of room for them as my garden is just not that big. |

| I think Paul Black is now my favorite iris of all time. I have never seen one so very deep blue and with the orange. Stunning. |
