Diamond Ring
Happy soggy Monday!! We are soaking wet, and lost a beautiful Hawthorne tree!

Love the Diamond Ring. You have some beauties.

"In your Dreams"

What a great combination of colors.

I think this is "Siletz Bay" - it was given to me by a local iris gardener a couple of years ago.

Simply gorgeous, folks!

I love that Tiny Dancer

This is a sweet dwarf Tahoma

First blooms out of Python'z Parasol. Huge flowers.

That's very pretty.

"LIKE"

great color

I think I've ID'd this beauty - 'Tasmanian Tangerine'

Lea, the pic you posted of purple noid, I think is Wabash, a heirloom iris. Correct me if I am wrong. Height about 12 to 15"?

Max

That's good to hear, Max! I've never known the name - this iris was in a bag of rhizomes handed to me by a guest at dinner in the fall of 2009. He had just cleared out his parents' garden and knew I like iris, so he brought me samples. Of course, nothing was marked and he had no idea of color or name. I assumed they were all heirloom, NoIDs. I just measured - the bloom is 22" tall.

This is in a big clump next to the AC. Left by former owners.

'Wabash' is an old TB not as short as she gives.

Nickysiris, your yellow iris posted along with astrobubbles sure looks like Skyhooks to me. I don't know how to do the link thing but, Skyhooks is in plant files if you want to check it out. Nonetheless, it is beautiful....whatever it is.

Leawood, I think that copper one is 'Tanzanian Tangerine' . Mine is bloomng now too.

Yes! I remember now - you sent it to me! Thank you so much. It's beautiful.

Depends one where it is planted and soil it is in. I have it planted in two different places, different soils and it can range in the size I stated and the size of a TB.

Maxine

I think you are right about the Sky Hooks. I also have Honey Scoop that is close in color, but has scoops. Happy Monday BIF's!! We are having a wet Monday. I should be out pulling weeds, but it is drizzling. I'm hoping it drys up a little bit this afternoon. KISSES FROM KANSAS!

"Starship Enterprise"

LeawoodGardener, your noid posted may 4th at 8:33 on the right......looks alot like Magharee to me.

Thanks, WillItGrow! That's what I'll call it!.

I forgot to post BlueBeards Ghost. It finally opened
My other early iris had budded when we had 3 nights of frost. I found the dead buds dried up. Really sad.

Banded Tiger this AM

Blooming today Nigerian Rhapsody, ZZ Zansibar, Kickapoo Kangaroo.

That Kangaroo sure is jolly.

Wow. I love the 'roo!

I have blooms, a nice Mother's day surprise. Unknown, very early, small and short so something I was gifted with. They are surrounded by Star of Bethlehem.
