While I’ve reported some on the Region 21 Fall Meeting, the banquet that was part of this meeting deserves its own thank you.  The food, catered by Mangia, was great.  I should have taken some pictures of the desserts; however, I was too busy enjoying them.

Our Greater Omaha Iris Society hosts provided everyone with a Sass rhizome!  I believe they were all either ‘Midwest Gem’ or ‘Pretty Pansy’.  And from the Sass Memorial Iris Garden.  On a coincidental note, ‘Pretty Pansy’ was subsequently featured on the World of Irises blog in a posting:  Iris Classics:  “Pretty Pansy” which includes more of its history.

Ron Crampton prepared the amazing centerpieces.  I’m not even sure my picture does them justice.

And, as I mentioned earlier, our speaker Bob Hollingworth expanded our horizons speaking on A World of Irids.

Thank you to everyone for a most enjoyable and remarkable evening!
