Oh boy, Tom -- things are really happenin' at your house!! Green Grin! My Mandarin Morning didn't bloom this year -- sure looking forward to that next year. Just love Reckless in Denim. Lovey dubby I have Reckless Abandon, but it didn't bloom this year either -- with all the rot problems, I'm just grateful that it didn't die!!

Just love Sofia -- that white rim around the gold falls is so cool...............

Thanks, they are coming on fast, but these are mostly all near the house. I have only 3 open in the outlying beds. At least as of yesterday.

You've got some beauties, Tom.

I have a question. When one says "maiden bloom" does that mean
first in your garden or first as a blooming seedling? Anyone?

You've got some great irises in bloom Tom! Thumbs up There's too many to list that I liked, so I will just say all of them are beauties! Big Grin

Be careful not to get me drooling again. It will be a tidal wave when it happens. nodding


I believe it's used in both circumstances Jan. Either way, it's the first time it has bloomed in your garden.

Fantastic show! And Sofia is special, both for the name and I'm very fond of yellow and white bicolors!
