Dutch Bulb Iris (Iris)

Have masses of these Iris, the bulbs increase readily, all the same colour. I usually overlook them, but Garly brought my attention to their beauty.

Most of these flowers are spent now, started cutting of the dead heads. It is only the ones in cooler, shady positions still flowering. Your position (near Oxford?)is not that much further north than me.

I live in the county of Warwickshire not Oxford. Mine are in the shade.

I am always interested to know in which counties members live in order to compare plant growth compared to here in deepest South. You had mentioned Oxford Canal in a post.

Yes it is interesting to know to compare .
Yes I have said the Oxford canal where I live the Oxford canal at Hawksbury junction starts or ends at Hawksbury junction.
You can see it here.
