Charming Billy. Although I love it, it's almost too frilly for my taste. I tend to like species forms.

Boojum -- absolutely will beg borrow or steal to get a piece of DBV... It's so been on my wishlist for a long time. I only have 5 named sibs right now but are falling for them hard during the bloom season each year as their clumps get larger and taller.

The iris with Coral Charm is Over the River.

Ohhhhhh, ahhhh, Charming Billy is charming when he's all bunched up! I love that the colors that seem to swirl and twirl... Gotcha... the 18th.

Thanks for that one Polly! Wondering if that's typical of the falls (unusual form).

Here's a blurry pic of Little Tricolor. And yes I do take bad pics quite often!

boojum,
They are ALL beautiful, what a great time of year! I just got Summer Sky this week. I was it in a friend's garden. I commented on how Summer Sky looked like butterflies and he very generously gave me some. The garden I visited was Jeff Dunlop's. Do you have any of his cultivars? He has some beauties!! I just picked up Dear Currier and Grape Ruffles both are beautiful! Also Dean Cole's My First Kiss is so pretty!
