Howdy Grdenbreeze,

It's nice to see someone from Louisiana posting. I live near you (Houma/Thibodaux) area and like to trade occasionally. Are you looking for something in particular?

Hi LadibugZ9

I am interested in LA Iris and some natives. Nothing specific as of yet. I am still gathering up my xtras to compose a list. I have some heirloom bulbs. Are you interested in something specific?
I've been to Mardi Gras in your area before Loved It!!!!

I love heirlooms and passalongs. I do have some heirloom Amaryllis that go back to my husband's great grandmother. They usually bloom around Easter.
