Today's colors will be Variegatas and Neglectas.

Variegata -- an Iris with yellow or near-yellow standards with darker falls of brown or purple.

Neglecta -- an Iris of blue or purple bitones with standards being the lighter color.

So my first pick of today is (Variegata) Darcy's Choice:

I have a Q...Iris are listed for bloom times as early, mid and late. I get that. What I am not sure of is when one is listed as early, mid AND late. Is it because they have a long bloom time? Is it because they can start at different times? Please explain. Shrug!

I always thought it was because that iris has been reported to bloom at those different times?

Is there a way to move an image from one post to another? I copied the link to one of my earlier posts above, but wondered if there was another way?

There was thanks to Sue! (see below)
