Oh I do like those, are they also called Fairy Iris Siris?

Thank you. Janey Ive never heard of 'Fairy Iris', had to look up, refers to the genus Dietes, apparently because the petals look like fairy wings. These are US moisture/water loving Iris, growing 70-1m.

Ah, much taller. Yes Dietes, I remember now. I saw many of them flowering when visiting my son in Sydney. Much smaller than yours.
