Irises From the Garden

I love iris, be they the reticulate type or the larger germanica. I have at least 2 I. unguicularis which flower Jan, the earliest ones in my garden.
they are just so beautiful.

What a lovely poem Thank you for sharing it with us Paul ...

So beautiful Paul.

These are fabulous. They don't like my garden so I'll just enjoy yours...

They are beautiful and there are so many different ones :) You have a good show of them ...

What a delightful poem, Bg. I love the purple stripy Bearded. Maybe that's called Circus Circus? I can't wait for the Iris season to start and to see if any of my 2 year old crosses will flower for the first time.

A wonderful poem,Paul and super pics to go with it. Thanks!

Thank You everybody for your comments and for sharing these garden gems with me.

Pretty words with pretty flowers.

Lovely poem Paul and you have a wonderful selection of Iris, great favourite of mine but will be a while before I see any here, I'll have to be satisfied with admiring yours from afar....

Thank You Terratoonie & Lin Happy New Year.

We used to call them flags Paul and we had the mauve ones in our garden in London when I was a child in the fifties. Lovely selection there, and they look so velvety. Lovely poem too.

Such exotic beauty is always over too soon:(

Thank You. Yes over way too soon. I don't recall seeing my blue 'Full Tide" iris this year. It must have taken a year off.

Perhaps we value them more because their beauty is so fleeting. Hope your Full Tide returns :)

I hope so. Thanks so much for stopping by. Hope things are well at your place. :)
