Pallida Variegata the white and green one.

Now a close up of same bloom.

This is a noid from texas and 46" tall and has pbf. Maiden bloom and am not sure if it might be Evolution. Any suggestions would be great.

Here is another shot after it has been open a day, the one before was just opened shot.

Bumblebee Deelite MTB maiden bloom.

Debbie Rairdon historic TB.

From Argyle Acres last year.

Frances Kent TB maiden bloom historic.

Julianna, your La De Da is wonderful. I love it. I love the colors all through it. Very different.

Linda

Gata noid might be AMAS but my Amas from Superstition obtained last year will not bloom this year to find out. Here is a better shot of the noid.

Gay Paree historic TB maiden bloom.

Oo I have that white/yellow 44 in noid...I love the height.......been searching for a name for a good while

Gibson Girl historic TB maiden bloom.

That 44" white and yellow noid seems to hold up well in rain storms too and has a diamond sheen to it. It has to be an historic but I have not spotted anything like it yet.

La De Da is a pretty iris. Has been blooming steadily.

This is supposed to be Great Lakes from HIPS sale in the past but it seems too purple to me to be it. Anyone know if this is an imposter? Has PBF.

Honey Chile historic TB maiden bloom.

Indian Chief histoic TB maiden bloom.

Lent A Williamson historic TB.
