    On the Lime Smoothy... is that just a green reflection from the leaves.... or is there a green tint to the flower?

    They are so beautiful! I love iris; I have a lot of them in my garden. In fact, I gave away tons of them last year, as they had become root-bound. I want to get the blue/white striped one called "Gnews Flash" (not sure about spelling).

    They are all pretty. Got to go uncover my taller ones. Getting ready to bloom. Not sure just how cold it got but pickup and had frost on it.

    Ok donm, it is time for you to own up. Your lovely photos were the unfortunate motivation for me helping to keep a miniature iris grower in business. :rolleyes: you should be very proud of yourself. :D

    I was lucky enough to get them "for postage" from a lady who was "thinning hers out". She had them marked with the names for me.
