I know iris gardeners understand what the average iris goes through weather-wise here in "Little Siberia". This is the iris garden where the plants in the banner are/were located near the top left of the picture. And I know for sure that their growth, bloom, health and increase will be affected if the current weather patterns continue into April. (It does not look good currently.) I know this is a bit off topic, but I feel it's important to make the point that "weather is everything" in the iris gardens. Right now it is a wait & see plan for more weather developments.
