Iris  (Iris germanica (Orris))

Sent to me by Siris last year, very heavily scented I could even smell it in the rain today.

You have scented Jane Phillips don't you? Think this has more heavily perfumed flowers, don't you? Rain? Not seen any for maybe a couple of weeks here.

Yes I do and agree this is much more strongly scented, beautiful!
Yes it's the first rain we've had for a while its still humid though, more forecast over the next week, maybe I'll get the pile of ironing done ;-)
