Gorgeous. Like nothing else are they.

That's the right word....I could just sit and stare at them....:-)))

A lovely statement Spritz.......can't seem to encourage my Irises to flower..they're all leaves...:o(

Do they need a) more sun on the rhizomes or b) splitting? Just a thought...

31 May, 2010

 

These are a great colour :-)))
Often you lose flowers the year after splitting them :-/

31 May, 2010

 

Yes, true, but these need splitting too, so I'll have to bite the bullet.

Think it must be the position...one is a new one last year and two from Mum....thanks Barbara...I'll move them when it's time......

31 May, 2010

 

Hope it works!! :-)))

Don't know - I'll have to take advice as to when's the best time!
