I got my wish for a pond full of water overnight, spent some time today staking the iris, the heads are so wet and heavy. Gg, the horn is the extension to the beard, the pointy bit!

And a good example shown on here (horn)
I need to stake a couple of mine the rain last night and early this morning was very impressive
