Iris histriodes 'Lady Beatrix Stanley'


Iris histriodes 'Lady Beatrix Stanley' (Iris histriodes)

I planted quite a number of this one and 'Sheila Ann Germany' in the flood walls last autumn, and they opened in the sun yesterday. Such a pleasure to see!

My camera doesn't capture the true shade - Lady B. is actually more purple-y. :-))
