A gardener tipped me off to the 'tween color of iris. I have lots of lilium so May to late June is a long time between interest in the garden here.
Then I proceeded to get hooked.

Betty, I have FIERY FIGURE too! No wonder I liked it and it caught my eye. I do love those hot colors in my daylily blooms but haven't seen many orange ones in the iris. I think it is my only orange here also. As to the season, it is a great one with the most bloom ever. But it really seems to be flying by. Started really early too but what can you do.
