And no I don't mean winning the National Championship in college basketball. I mean that time that causes all iris lovers' hearts to race, causes one to pick up binoculars to search out growth, then run out as soon as possible to take pictures! Why? Because the most wonderful time is bloom time!

My first buds are popping out on the SDB's. Early this year, but we have had crazy weather. These are all maiden blooms.
