Autumn Wine

18 years ago

Autumn Wine has been blooming its head off for over a month now and has been totally unaffected by temps. as low as 30o.

It is a nice velvety red bitone with a rim on the falls and HORNS.

No other 'rebloomers' except for a seedling have attempted rebloom because of our extreme drought, heat, etc. Lack of rainfall(twenty inches short of normal)has hurt trees and shrubs, too. Fall foliage color was not up to par. Some trees defoliated in late August and early September.

Walter, I know what you mean about drought. We have had below normal rainfall all year, and just got 8 inches of snow last night. You are so lucky to have rebloomers! I did an advanced search on Dave's Garden for Moores, and didn't realize you had so many beautiful irises that you introduced. Definitely have added some to my list for next year. Especially love Ascii Art.

Thanks! I have been around so long I now have two historic irises. Or, I got into irises at a very early age!!
