I received Larry's Iris yesterday. They are in a place chosen especially for them. I will take pictures as they grow so that I have them if you do a follow up on this special project that you have started. Thank you for allowing me to be apart of Larry's Garden.

My iris arrived in NC today. I will find a nice place for it Monday. Thank you again!

~ Tracy

I'm glad to see that larrys irises are making their way to new homes.

I just noticed that I've been answering peoples questions on here from my email thus appearing that I'm ignoring questions. I'm not...lol

I mailed out yesterday to

Florida and washington, I'llpost the dc#s when I'm not too lazy to get up and get them..lol

I got an envy from S. dakota today and will mail out on Monday.

Lisa

A "Larry" iris rhizome was waiting for me when I got home yesterday. I will be planting it out tomorrow.
Thank you Lisa. I am sorry I did not think to tell you to keep the change!
Alana

Alana,

I have mailed change back to every person that had change due back to them so I wouldnt have kept it anyway but Thank you!

Lisa

Iowa checking in...Larry's iris arrived Friday and is happily planted in a place of honor next to my new home. :) Thank you, Lisa and Larry!!!

Alana, Lisa doesn't listen. *giggles* But she sure is special!

Dee

Hello!

I would love to have one of Larry's Iris!

I know you already have a South Carolina, but if you would like another please keep me in mind!!

This is such a wonderful idea to save the iris's!

-Kat

Lisa, I received mine Friday. Thank you so much for sharing! Larry's iris will have a special place in my yard.

Larry's iris arrived in Virginia yesterday while I was visiting my daughter and son-in-law and helping establish some flowers (including iris) in their yard. My husband opened the envelope and put it in a safe place, and I will get it in the ground tomorrow (should have done it today when I got back!) Lisa, I see I owe you money, so sorry! If you have a paypal account, I will be glad to send it to you that wayl LMK. I have a prime spot awaiting Larry's iris, where I took some others out that are now in my daughter's yard.

Becky

Hi Becky, Don't worry about it going over. I only had a few like that so it's no big deal.

I have a few more irises going out tomorrow for those of you who just sent in your postage.

Lisa

I know you already have TN but if you have any extras ,I would love to have one also.thanks for helping keep a old mans garden alive!!

Lisa,

Larry's Iris arrived yesterday and will be planted this evening in it's special, reserved space in my front yard beds. I am sectioning off a space just for it and any future offspring it may put off. I am keeping it somewhat isolated not only so it can shine alone, but because I'm trying to keep it from crossing with others, which are in the back yard. I am so thrilled to represent Oklahoma in your project and hope that Larry enjoys knowing they are being spread across the US. If you end up with more, whether they are iris or not, from his beds, I will be happy to give them a new home to save them for him :)

Kathy

Karen

Im in Hawaii. I would love to have one.

Hi, Lisa,
I checked the # sent for Iowa 0307 0020 0004 6760 4768 & the message I received was -There is no such #. Do I have it correct? Want to make sure I am home to receive. Blessings, Margaret

Hi Margaret,

I just checked your dc#, the last 4 numbers are 4678. I'm sorry, I must have transposed the numbers when posting them.

Lisa

I would just love to grow Larry's legacy irises here in Utah, I'll rmail you for my address. Thank you for sharing. Chris

If you don't have one for Mississippi yet, I would be happy to send Larry a card and postage on Monday for one of his iris. Please let me know.

Thank you,

Don

Larry's iris is safe in its Missouri home. Thank you Larry and Lisa. Can't wait to see what it looks like.

LISA, Thank you so much! The iris arrived this week while I was on the road and I have the perfect spot for it.

Again, thanks so much for giving me the opportunity to give Larry's iris a home in Illinois. I will get the card back to you on Monday as I am going to be a hermit today and not going any further than my yard.

LIFE IS GOOD,
Annie

Larry has moved into his new home, I'm hoping that he remembers to call me when he gets settled in. Here are some pics that I took , I thought I would add a few photos of his irises to the board that I made for him. The last three are ones that bloomed for me after being transplanted her in my yard.

I received my iris yesterday. Thank you for taking the time to distribute Larry's iris across the country. What a great idea you had!!!!
Thank you,
Barbara-Mississippi

They are all beautiful, Lisa!! Thanks for posting the pics!

Karen

Lisa, the irises are beautiful! Can't wait to see what me Mom's turns out to be.

Lisa-Just letting you know I received Larry's iris & can't wait until next year to see it blooming. Thanks for this large undertaking you are doing. I know he will be thrilled when he sees your great accomplishment. Blessings, Margaret

LIsa

michelle

Hi Lisa,

Thanks so much for sending me Larry's irises! I really appreciate it and have planted them in a very special spot where they will get lots of love and care. I will be very anxious to see them bloom next season! I have mailed you some postage money and a "thank you" note for Larry, so hopefully you'll receive this soon. Thanks again for sharing with me! - Lisa

Hi Lisa,

The irises were a birthday gift for the b-day buddies swap!!!! I'll keep the card but will return the money when I get it.

Lisa

THIS OFFER IS NOW CLOSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lisa,
I can't wait to her what Larry thinks of all this wonderful hard work you've been doing!! I also can't wait until next spring when everyone starts to post pictures of Larry's irises in bloom!!

You're great!!
Amy (from MN)

I'm sad to hear this offer is over. I responded on the 9th because I didn't see Indiana listed as receiving one, and I even wrote a thank you note to Larry in a thank you card, but I think my message was over-looked, but that's okay. I have plenty of iris. I hope Larry has an iris somewhere in Indiana. Thanks anyways for sharing his iris the way you did/have.

J_and_C

Gardenmom2 posted her request from Indiana on May 20th.

Hello Lisa,

Larry's Iris arrived in Marietta, Mississippi today. Already safe and sound with wet, dirty feet, and plenty of sun! I believe they will be happy here. Thank you so much!

Don

Lisa, I got Larry's Iris today and it's planted already! I didn't get out to the mailbox Sat. so I'm not sure if it came then or today, but it was in great shape!
Thanks again and I hope he enjoys his cards!
Vicky

Please see the new thread and leave a message for Larry. He joined the gardenweb!!

IHope Larry is doing well - he must be so proud with all those wonderful thank you notes =)
