Open today #2

Hi. I started a new thread because the last one was getting a bit long. You can find the old thread here:

http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/594050/

Open today are:

Dumbledore...an Intermediate Bearded Iris.

SDB 'Red Rabbit'

A pretty little SDB...'Fling'

Dumbledore is terrific! I tried to buy that one last summer, but it was out of stock with the grower from whom I placed my order. Sniff, sniff.

Laurie

SDB 'Grape Orbit'

I'm really liking 'Dumbledore' myself. It was new to me last year. Sorry to hear that you didn't get one! :0(

Here's SDB 'Pippi Longstockings'. She's probaby my favorite color combination...not the fastest grower, though.

Last one for this morning is SDB 'Jeweler's Art'. The colors on this one really pop!

Pippi is gorgeous! Then again, I knew it would be. Can you guess why I want to add that one to my beds, Laura?

I tried Jeweler's Art years ago, but it was one of the few SDBs I've lost here. The one you sent me last summer is still hanging in there, so perhaps it'll settle in this time around.

Laurie

Is there a reason, other than that it's gorgeous, that you want to add 'Pippi' to your beds? Not that you need another reason...just curious.

I love 'Jeweler's Art'! There's nothing like it. The colors are outstanding! I hope the one I traded to you holds on.

Laura

Think, Laura, think! Remember that little private discussion we had about my "iris" babies?

Oh yes! I haven't checked, but I'm guessing one of your furry family members has that name?

It's not for "Pippin" is it?

Bingo!

Lovely blooms today! Jeweler's Art is incredible.

Sandy

Thanks, Sandy! :0)

More for today. This one is 'Cream and Peaches'

Love the name on this one...'Diggles'.

'Sugar Sweet' is palest pink.

A terrific MDB...'Wise'.

Here's 'Chemistry'...another terrific MDB!

Hard to beat a clump of 'Grape Orbit'!

The breathtaking 'Music'.

'Black Ice'

Last one for today is 'Impeached'.

Gosh, it's getting harder not to just D-mail you and ask you for one of each! LoL. The more you show, the more I'm looking forward to a future trade with you.

Thanks, Roni! :0)

Okay...I lied. There are a couple more open today.

This is a much better picture of 'Bloodstone' than I posted on the previous thread.

Ruby Eruption

This is 'Tiny Titan'. The bloom is so cute and ruffled! I would say the size is only about as big around as a half dollar piece.

Hi Everyone~

I missed a couple of days. I was in Victoria B.C., visiting Butchart Gardens for my 8th anniversary. It was great!

Well...back to business. Here's what's blooming today.

Intermediate Bearded Iris 'Starwoman'

A blue Dutch Iris

SDB 'Near Myth'

MDB 'Be Little'

SDB 'Cool As'

SDB 'Cat's Eye'

SDB 'Ballet Lesson'

SDB 'Jade Maid'

SDB 'Wild Passions'

Laura - do you suppose this could be Jeweler's Art instead of Jewel Baby? The tag I have clearly states Jewel Baby, but it can't be!

maybe it looks more like Cat's Eye.
