I seem to go through cycles on which plant I am currently addicted to. I went through a major iris cycle a few years ago, then clematis, then daylilies, then lilies, then hydrangeas, and this year I landed back on iris.
I added about 50 new iris this year. Somehow when I am stuck on other plants, I get 5-10 of them, but when I get started on iris, I have to count by the dozens. They are still my first love! Most of them are tall bearded, though I have a few border bearded, SDB's, and even tried my first few Siberians this year.
I am seriously running out of room, unless I dig up some more beds.
I can't wait for spring, though! I know they may not all bloom the first spring, but I can hope, can't I?
I really NEED to add some rebloomers. My gardens are so heavily weighted toward iris and spring bulbs, I have a really bleak period in late summer and fall.
