This cross between Scented Blue and 'Stepping Out' has a delicious scent.

Yes Gg, the colour is 1/2 way between 'Stepping Out' and it's unnamed French mother.

All this "crossing" must keep you pretty busy Siris but obviously worth it. Beautiful colour. I took some photos yesterday to show my sister as she thought that Iris only came in blue.

I think many people do believe that blue is the only colour of Iris. They are sometimes called the rainbow flower, for the variety of colours in which they come.
