Omigosh Brad -- where to start???

Picture 3L -- what a beautiful color! Looks like a modernized Lady Friend.

Picture 3R -- one of the most striking of the group -- unusual color combination. I probably wouldn't buy this one though (at least not early on), because it looks so much like Strozzapreti -- which I already have:


Actually, it's kind of a cross between Strozz and Terra del Fuoco, isn't it?


Wish I could see 4R fully open.......the color is yummy!!

6L is wonderful!! I love brown Irises -- and this one has brown in the standards and falls -- and I love the edges on the falls! Lovey dubby

6R is also wonderful -- first time I've ever seen a cream and purple -- am I right about it being a completely new color combination?

7L is stunning -- and would have to be my pick of the group. It's so close to the holy grail of black and white. And I love the splash of purple below the white on the fall, and also love the gold edge on the standard.

I haven't enlarged any of the pictures yet, so am reserving judgement on 7R and 8L -- gonna go do that now. Green Grin!

The others are very nice -- just not my favorite color combinations and/or look like Irises that I already have.

I'm so glad you posted those -- what a great treat this morning!!!
