Don't have a name for these. They don't multiply very fast.
Let's see clumps!
I Google for blue-eyed blond and only saw it mentioned by an iris society. It is indeed rare now.
I am so jealous of you all. My irises were up and looking great then we had an unseasonably harsh cold front and they are leveled. Will they recover? We got to 15 degrees.
To add insult to injury, we are expecting another cold front tomorrow and Monday with SNOW! The contrast between our coastal areas and here in the mountains is amazing.
I'm so sorry woodspirit. I know that everyone in your part of the world is hard hit.
Yes indeed, they are lovely sights and leave me hoping for the promise in my iris gardens. Do you suppose they will survive? That was awfully cold weather for plants that are not mulched.
Are any of the above irises rebloomers?
pollyk - lovely coronation anthem... with and without OP
Thanks! OP's my largest garden pest. Opened the garage door one day, middle of winter, 10 below, she came running in and never left, except to go in the garden, and pull leaves and flowers off my plants and run like crazy with them. But she's a sweet kitty.
Bourgeois is a new one on me, very beautiful. I love Blue-eyed blond. And the clump of Dutch Iris is very attractive and OP definitely adds to the picture. Thanks all of you for feeding my hunger for flowers especially iris. Spring is only just beginning here. It snowed day before yesterday.
None of the ones I posted are re bloomers.
The iris should survive the extreme weather patterns of this year as they are very tough plants. Example my compost pile is starting to bloom!
You may loose most if not all the bloom this year! Just depends on how long this weather last, but then next year you will have wonderful bloom again....
If you are interested in Blue Eyed Blond, I have quite a bit of it and will trade for something I do not have.

Lovely, Dee. I do love Japanese Iris and just don't see it here. Thanks for posting it.
For the business mine are always singles but for the cover and speaking I use both...
It is fun to see both.

Diane - that's why I thought that it would be good to have clump photos. It says so much about the plant habits of the iris.
Beautiful, all of them.
I'm noticing that this thread is getting long though so I'm going to start a new one.
