Cindy - those are beautiful pics of THAT iris. Especially love the multiple shot. Really nice collection of first blooms! Love your pic of Coffee Trader too.

Thanks Mary Ann. I was thinking about getting Bollywood but I think it looks too similar to Two Sided Coin.

I'm the same way, Cindy -- I don't buy Irises that look like ones that I've already gotten. I would rather allocate the space to something different!!

My Fly Your Colors opened today too! First time I've seen it. I don't really like it though. Kind of dull to me. I'll be looking for a new home for it.

Sorry to hear that Fly Your Colors is not so pretty. I just bought it last year and mine did not bloom. Two Sided Coin and Bollywood do look similar but that did not spot me from getting All Ashore. It has the same color pattern.

Well -- I didn't love Fly Your Colors either. But because it's been such a crappy year weather-wise, and so many Irises caved, I gave it credit for hanging in there and blooming. For that reason, I'm giving it another year to see if it becomes a beauty!!
