As promised, here's a pic of Rosalie Figge - blooming here in Menton on New Year's Day 2019. And a new thread for 2019 blooms for anyone who wants to add a pic or ninety!

15 degrees here this morning, you don't know how wonderful it is to see a picture of an iris in bloom! Thanks!

Rosalie Figge I think she's probably a must have for me at this point. One, for her great colours, and two for her reblooming ability. Great pic, Mika!

Thanks, everyone.

Rosalie Figge and a new bloom thread!

...and Brad has added a new load of his fantastic iris pictures to the database if anyone needs to look at more irises... I know I do!

Oh, Lilli, I've noticed! He's added photos of many Mid-America 2019 intros - just when I said I wouldn't, couldn't afford any of this year's new ones... There's a be-ruffled pink that dazzles!

Was there a song called Sussudio ??


...answering myself...yes. there was, Jan. Phil Collins - in 1985 - Sussudio is a made-up girl's name, according to Prof. Google. It's so repetitive that a fraction of a brain cell remembered it!

I've been saying I won't buy any new irises this year, but I'm very tempted by this one:

Mika, yep, that's one gorgeous iris!

I really want this one too:

Yes, I agree that it's gorgeous, too. Perhaps I'd better not even look! Or just through fingers over my eyes?

I love Pharoah's Poet too!

Mika, they look just as good through fingers over your eyes - ask me how I know...

Open today
Sunstrip-a very tiny stalk, about 5" tall. (An MDB want-a-be?)



Anxious-on it's third rebloom stalk.


Another couple of stalks coming.

Nice, Carl! Anxious seems like it is a really good rebloomer. I will have to find that one too at some point.

...And all of these new intros. Lord in Heaven above...help me.

there's no hope for you, monty. sounds like you've got a really bad case of the virus; the iris virus. there's no cure or haven't you heard?

Pharoah's Poet is on my order list for sure
