Stunning, I love them, I bought 8 Germanicas recently off eBay, (a real bargain too as they are quite expensive normally) cant wait to see them in flower next year, I hope I planted them correctly, full sun, shallow planting so sun bakes the rhizomes? they already arrived cut back and fanned to stop wind rock. Your photo is fantastic, with my other favourite flowers in the background :-)

You must get all the bargains in Lincs Janey, I wouldn`t mind having a go at growing some Iris if I could find a bargain buy.
