Irises

I wanted to post something...figured I might as well show my irises that are blooming. I have two or three other colors, but it is raining so cannot go take pictures. The one of the purple one is from last year, but the others were taken this year.
I don't know the names of any of them...the off white ones were given to me by a neighbor. I started with about half a dozen and now have a bunch of them.
The purple and the peach I bought, and the purple have really reproduced, but the peach haven't. I don't know the reason for the difference...
-----------------
Sarah and Jeremy came by yesterday....seeing Lorelei did me a world of good. I start babysitting Monday if nothing else happens. I am hoping that I can at least post a little something along, but it probably won't be much. So hope you will bare with me till I get in a routine.

  1. They're very pretty & that white one is really beautiful!

    I guess you're feeling better now that you're going to start watching Lorelei? I'm glad you're well! Happy babysitting!

  2. Lovely colors, especially that gorgeous grape-y purple! That's the color I'd go for in my fantasy garden!

  4. I like all of your iris and the photos you got. Perhaps it will stop raining so you can show pictures of your other iris.

  6. Hi Rose, Gorgeous Irises... I have never had a white one. Beautiful!!!! That peach color one is also gorgeous.

    Did you know that they make Reblooming Irises now???? They will bloom again in the fall. We have a few of them.

    Hugs,
