Kris Jurik will be speaking to the Central Iowa Daylily Society April 14th.  Her talk is ‘So you want to see my irises- which ones, and when?’  Kris and Tom Jurik have an incredible garden!  You may remember it as a host garden during the American Iris Society 2017 Convention.

The meeting is in the Fisher Community Center, Room A, Marshalltown from 1:30 pm to 5:00 pm.  The complete 2018 calendar for the Central Iowa Daylily Society can be found here.

Something I learned from reading the Autumn 2016 Newsletter of the Can-West Iris Society; BJ Jackson will be giving a presentation “Medians: The Other Bearded Iris” as part of the 119th Manitoba Horticultural Association’s annual meeting.  BJ is a Region 21 member and the president of the Can-West Iris Society.  Her presentation will be Friday, January 27, 2017 at 11 a.m. at the Killarney United Church, Killarney, Manitoba.  The registration form (PDF) and program (PDF) are online.  Preregistration deadline is January 9th.  For further information, the email m.h.a@shaw.ca is the contact for the Manitoba Horticultural Association.

A great way to get your January iris fix!
