| Positive | bonjon (4 reviews) | On May 15, 2008, bonjon Raleigh, NC wrote: Keith Keppel was unbelieveably kind for a year of contacts prior to my first order last year. He sent a prior year's catalogue for free, answered numerous questions with good detail and humor, and was incredibly gracious when my outgoing mail lost his order. He filled what he could, specifying they might be undersized. The order came in ten days, and OH MY the bonuses! Lots of long fat roots, and HUGE rhizomes. I'd let him know which I was chosing between, and most bonuses were the almost chosen.
Last May I had an opportunity to visit. oh WOW - I had to invent an entire new iris rating system. Reclassified MUST HAVE to MUST HAVE +, ++, +++, and ++++.
I will be ordering EVERY year! Worth twice every penny. He only carries his own new intros and select Barry Blyth new intros.
And they are like bloomin' fools in my garden - every one so far has bloomed and increased. | | Positive | flowrgirl1 (2 reviews) | On March 7, 2008, flowrgirl1 Winston Salem currently, NC (Zone 7a) wrote:I have not yet ordered from keith keppel but i have spoken with him via email. He was full of kindness and willingness to help an aspiring hybridizer such as myself. I do plan to order this year for the first time and I know it will be a great experience. | | Positive | tj0504 (12 reviews) | On September 2, 2007, tj0504 Saint Louis, MO wrote: This was my first year ordering from Keith, and it was an excellent experience. My rhizomes arrived at the requested time, and they were large and healthy, several with doubles. There were many bonus iris included in the order. There were no outages.
Soon after I ordered, my computer went down and among the info lost, was his order. He sent me another copy, without any fuss, and with some humor.
Great experience overall. I will order from him again.

Ordered from Keith Keppel for the first time this year and was I ever impressed! Rhizomes, all the results of his hybridizing, were huge. Order arrived promptly with generous bonuses. Keppel\'s irises are magnificent and his business runs as smoothly as silk through the fingers.
