Iris and a new hosta

The Sibirian Irises are blooming now, and they're ever so pretty. At least I think so:

The Tree Peony bloom has developed too:

This is an Iris chrysographes:

My husband's Penstemon. He whined and whimpered and wanted to bring it home, so we let him:

And our newest, little hosta. It's so cute:

The time around mid-summer is rather boring, bloom wise here, so I'm enjoying the few we've got.

 

That is an interesting array of irides.
I especially liked the white one with a vague hint of purplishblue (the first one).
The tree Peony is a very unusual colour.
And finally....the Penstamon that your man came home with-- Do you recall the name of that? I just got a new one myself today and it was also purple.
Congratulations all round on the very lovely flowers.

 

Thank you Sjoerd, and sorry, but it didn't have a name. It's from Anne-Lise, and she might remember if I remember to ask her.

 

Lovely blooms Droopy. My Siberian Iris's are blooming now too. I love the Iris chrysographes, it's such a lovely shade. I bought a new Penstemon the other day too
So you finally got your Mouse Ears Hosta, that's great!

 

Thank you Netty. We're well pleased. I just hope it will like to live here with us.

 

Hehe, a rhubarb? Well, if he knows how to make rhubarb soup or desserts, why not?

 

I will, as long as you post colourful photos during winter, toni.
