Iris reticulata

i have some blue ones that look as if they may open in a day or two ~ dependent on weather!!

Wow - amazing

so pretty...........

nice Meanie!!

Love this color!

Thanks all!

Sticki - they open very quickly. I almost missed these!

i shall be watching out then ~ behind locked doors ~ there is a criminal on the loose from the prison 4/5 miles down the road!!!

Supreme!

This is a lovely deep colour , I have one nearly out a pale blue one !

Is there a reward Sticki!!

Thanks S/side!

It is a very rich colour Amy. Is yours the "Katherine Hodgkin" (the one that I'm really waiting for)?

if i said the reward was this:

would you be out catching him??

Yes it is Meanie , I have about 10 different named ones ,I find it difficut to tell some of them apart , I have to keep all the name tags to compare them with when they are in flower ....

Meanie I have just pulled all my labels out for the iris's and have 2 labels for one called Joyce the picture on one label looks purple and on the other label a lovely blue how will I know it when it's in flower ???? I find this happens a lot with the colouring on packets !

That's such a beautiful colour Meanie..

lovely colour

Thank you Michaella and Steve!

Amy - call me anal, but I keep a photo file for every plant that I have to avoid confusion.

I do take a photo once they come into flower Meanie , but I had some new ones last year ,they are all planted in an area of lawn and unless they come up in the same colours as shown on the packet the chances are I wouldn't know which is which , Please don't tell me to stick labels in the lawn where they are planted because my OH would soon sling them when he mowed the lawn LOL...

Thats a stunning pic Meanie...................

Thanks Milky!

Stick labels in Amy!!!!!!!!

Thank you Moti!
