Member of the "American Iris Society", "Tucson Area Iris Society", "Reblooming Iris Society", "Tall Bearded Iris Society" and organizer of the "Iris Hybridizers of Arizona" group which meets semi-annually in Casa Grande, AZ. I've been growing irises since 1978. Seriously growing them since 1986. I began my adventure in hybridizing irises in 1994, but lost most of them when we moved. In 1999 - - I began crossing irises again - as a serious "backyard" hybridizer. I also enjoy taking photos, geo-caching, visiting ghost towns, reading, and thinking outside the box. :-) My birthday is on May 30th. My personal favorite quote is: "If you can think it, you can do it. If you can dream it - you're half way there. I'm also happy to say that my first iris introductions will be available to the public in late Spring of 2007 at Nola's Iris Garden in San Jose, CA. They have a website too. .
