Hi,
The issue is out. Look for the Better Homes and Gardens  Special   Interest 
Publications-PERENNIALS spring 2007 issue.  Look on page 88-95 and  be 
prepared 
to be awed. I would have written  it quite differently. We are  only 35 miles 
from Ensata Gardens (our  soils are very different) but we can grow  bearded 
and 
beardless  irises. Too bad we didn't have some advertising in  this issue.  

Best Wishes,
Jill Copeland

Jill, 
 
I read the article and it is good.  To place AIS advertising Bob Pries  needs 
advance notice, as in the upcoming Fine Gardening article I wrote  for the 
May/June issue.  This article germinated with a request from them  to me on July 
1, 2006 and the copy deadline was September 15, 2006.  Final  photo layout 
took place February 15, 2007 with advertising copy finalized about  the same 
time.  Individual commercial iris advertisers to Fine  Gardening, such as 
Schreiners and Cooleys, were informed of the  upcoming feature more than six months 
before publication for any  adjustments, etc.  So Bob would need at least a 
six-month lead time for any  major publication advertising -- if he has budget.
