The Wilson Garden is also called Iris Inspire Us® on their pecan farm. The Wilson Garden was on the Aril Trek in 2018. Perry Dyer stated in 2018 that the Wilson’s garden was the finest display of Arilbreds that he has ever seen. Cynthia Wilson is the current president of the Mesilla Valley Iris Society. The Wilsons moved to Las Cruces in 2006. Note that Howie Dash seedlings are grown on the farm and are located on the other side of the row of trees. Howie won best seedling award during the AIS convention in Des Moines, Iowa. Cynthia and Wes Wilson have over 700 irises in addition to the convention plantings. They say they never saw an iris they didn’t like! Cynthia wants everyone to be aware that MVIS is celebrating it 50th anniversary in 2021.
