Greetings gardeners, Thank you, thank you, thank you! We've had an excellent bloom season this spring and have enjoyed visiting with all who have frequented the farm in the last month. Whether a familiar or new face, we look forward to spring often as much for the people as we do the irises. Your continued patronage is sincerely appreciated and your gardening friendships are much enjoyed. We tried something a little different this year. If you were here you might have filled out a popularity poll. The results from the 1st Annual Rainbow Iris Farm Popularity Poll are as follows and we are pleased to announce that our own 'Gene's Lora Lavelle' is this year's winner. Many of you commented favorably about our 2009 introduction and we hope the supply holds so that we can share this beauty with you when it comes onto the market. Gene's Lora Lavelle 10 Jesse's Song 8 Footloose 7 Autumn Bugler 6 Bengal Tiger 6 Blue Chip Stock 6 Blue Eyed Blonde 5 Bottled Sunshine 5 Midsummer Night's Dream 5 Ruby Slippers 5 Claire Doodle 4 David Chapman 4 Summer Olympics 4 The above list represents the top eleven, with many ties as you can see across the roster. 106 different cultivars were voted for and exactly 200 votes were cast. Thanks for participating. Now we need to pray for the rain to stop...all the best in your garden this summer! Happy gardening, Kelly, Kenny, Krystal, and Kody Rainbow Iris Farm |
