Ok. So I finally got an iris blooming! Starwoman (Stacy) had said a week or so ago that it would be two weeks (give or take) before we saw bloom in South Central PA. I did not post anything, but thought NO WAY. I was wrong. Duh. (My wife ask if I seriously doubted a woman). What a dummy.
My 2014 bloom date was 4/27 and the happy cultivar is:
Muggles
Picture posted later.
So, how does this compare to years past? Let's go to the data.
2010 4/10 "Jewel Baby"
2011 4/24 "Jewel Baby"
2012 4/02 "Jewel Baby"
2013 4/24 "Jewel Baby"
2014 4/27 "Muggles"
Note: I got rid of "Jewel Baby" last year. It is a VERY vigorous grower and was taking up valuable space.
