Thanks, Albert, for taking over the exchange!

Here's a bit more information about the Moraea corms I sent to this
exchange, plus links to some photos. 

Plant the corms as soon as you receive them -- they are winter-growing and
should have been in the ground already (sorry about that).

Most of these are small offsets that will need another year of growth before
they bloom. The plants marked GK are from noted Iris breeder Garry Knipe,
who is also experimenting in Moraea.
