First to flower, except for the dwarfs. In front garden, in poorest position, because its not fussy.

We used to call these Flags. They are lovely.

Just this one? Sometimes we call any bearded ones 'Flags'

Yes the bearded ones of any colour Siris. The petals are like velvet.

They are indeed Linda, and some have a sparkle to the petals.

It's just a pity that the flowers don't last longer, but there are plenty of buds awaiting to come out.

Lindak, I have done a 'trial' each flower is lasting about a week. The condition depends on the weather. Then the next bud down opens.

Like the colour combination here. Think the Iris is an historic, never named, never registered, but such a good doer.
