A Few March 2009 Iris Blooms From South Florida

Ft Lauderdale, FL(Zone 10a)

Just thought I'd post a few blooms from the past 3 weeks here in Ft Lauderdale, FL (Zone 10). I've had no success in the last few years with Bearded Iris blooming here, but the Reblooming varieties have done surprisingly well. Here is Reblooming Bearded Iris "Fall Spotlight"

Really like Fall Spotlight. Very pretty pictures. Its good to know that you have rebloomers blooming in Florida zone 10.

I like how you have veggies in the bed. Yummy irises and veggies.

Thanks mshadow and pollyk. Yes, I plant veggies behind the iris during the Florida winter and Sunflowers and zinnias behind them during our hot summers. The veggies will unfortuantely die back/go to seed in the next month or so.
