Wabash Cannonball!

[lindaj]

The irises the my mother gave me for my garden (which she got from my grandmother's garden) are blooming this year, so I finally know what kind they are. One of them is my absolute favorite, the Wabash Cannonball. I thought it had been lost.



The other is a pale purple, which was my grandmother's favorite (though she called it "blue"), and also the most prolific in her garden.

Yay!

You're welcome to come take some, as soon as the blooming season is over (probably another couple of weeks, or a month). I'll instruct you on proper planting depth and such, which is important, or they won't bloom.
