Tall Bearded Iris 'Superstition' (Iris germanica (Orris))

A so called black Iris 'Superstition'. First time I have seen this flowering for a while as the last couple of times have knocked the heads off, so moved it.

My Tommymoo black has great leaves, but is not going to flower this year, it has a brown beard, whereas Superstition has a blue one. My black Night Owl from The Range is not, it is a blue, had it ages, another I had never seen flowering before.

Think this is the 3rd year in my garden and first time it'll have flowered don't know why its taken so long they were massive tubers.
My loop de loop has buds for the first time in about 4 years too, we'll not go into why but my fault lol.
