Just noticed the sparkly edges on both the falls and standards on Pippi Longstockings!! Check that out!

Mary Ann, love your little ones soooo much !!! Thanks for sharing the beautiful photos...

Thanks everybody -- I'm sure enjoying them!!

BTW -- I had to dig up a small clump of my Ancient One -- and wonder if anyone would like to have the rhizomes. Think I could pack them in a small flat-rate box for about six dollars...........

They are prolific!!! I have about 30 of them myself and they increase quickly.

Mary Ann, Tree mailing you.

Going well down there Mary Ann.

It's about to explode here, I think, Tom!!!

I got a few more photos this evening. Unfortunately, it rained all day long before clearing this evening, so the flowers are looking water-logged. But I wasn't sure that I would get another shot with some of them.

This is Neytiri (may be spelled Neyetiri):


Chicklet:


Just Sassy:


Snitch:


Poor *Pinkster* -- one bloom and it just got brutalized by the weather...........


And just one more picture of Pippi Longstocking -- because she's AWESOME!!!!


There are a couple more SDB's out there with bloomstalks -- so I'm not done yet!

neytiri? She is named for the Avatar heroine. I love how geekie hybridizers are!!!!

And it is a pretty iris too.

It is, indeed. And is Neytiri the correct spelling Les?

Not sure. It may just be Netiri without the "y".

Just checked - the Avatar character IS Neytiri.

Thanks, Leslie!!

When I ordered that one from Iris Whisperer it was spelled Neyeteri

I am enjoying all the photos wearing my smug grin. Nothing in bloom here as yet, at least not irises.

Great little guys Mary Ann. I had rain off and on all day too. Just enough to weigh down large blooms on the newly opened TB's and to make some of the new little guys look ragged. Some are first year plants and I may not get another bloom on them this year.

Very nice, MaryAnn ! Now that you're hooked on medians.....and since I still owe you a "park noid".....I know where to send some "extras"

Had time to take a few pictures yesterday -- there were a couple of new-to-me SDB's that were open.

In Cahoots -- isn't this a pretty little thing........


Cafe Mocha (think I posted pictures earlier):


Alamo Joe:


My *clump* of Vixen Elf -- lol:


Gonna make two posts out of this..........

Assorted Flavors has diamond-dusting!!!


And look at the rich colors of Small Margin:


Compared to the delicate colors of Teagan:


And My Cher:


Another shot of In Cahoots, because it's so pretty.......


Tropical Shoals just opening:


Cat's Eye has made a nice clump:


But nothing compares to the clump made by Pippi Longstocking -- this is a two-year clump!!!


This is Pippi last year, it's first year here:


That's it for today. Think there is one more out there that hasn't opened up yet!
