Congrats on the new filly, Tom.
I love horses! I always wanted to have my own growing up,but had to settle on summer camps and riding there.My cousin had her own horse, and I was SO jealous.
I am looking forward to all your iris pictures,now that my season is at an end.
I hope you can find the time to post your iris pictures .

Arlyn, my memory is perfect, I can't remember when I forgot anything.


Pepperjack has re-appeared.

Mendacity Clump

Going Dutch Clump

Tess, Naughty girl, get out of the iris bed.

I'm not naughty, you're being mean.

Yes, you're naughty. I sorry

So funny! Love the little filly, too.

I agree-too funny-Bad Kitty!
Just hope in hiding among the iris,Tess didn't break off any bloom stalks!!

Nice filly, lovely flowers, glad that you have a garden companion!

Something had been blooming very nicely here, but I only got I bad pic, and I placed the pot so where I can't read the label now .... I believe that it is also PATH TO HEAVEN, though (from what I can tell from the pic, and the other possibility). It put on a good show, and will probably need dividing this year.

Busy around here, new foal, blooms coming on like crazy and a Birthday party to attend. Well here's some of the blooms so far. I don't have time to do all of them now. More later.

I knew when I ordered "Fields Of Gold" that I'd like it, but it exceeds my expectations. Wow, I love it.

Celtic Tartan

Amazing Don, Well known as a fictional character. Only those who have been on here for a while will know what I'm talking about.

A better pic of Turkish Tapestry.

Waterline. Nice powder blue.

Wow, Tom!

The blooms are coming so fast now I can hardly keep up taking pictures, much less posting them. Here's a couple until I can get back to posting.

Ninja Warrior

Royal Harlequin

Exploding Galaxy

Flights Of Fancy

Foolish Dreamer

Class Ring

Wicked Good One I culled and it came back.

Painted Words

Beds near the house.
The outer beds are coming alive now too.

Nice, Tom!

Really pretty picture of the beds !Lots of blooms.

Great show Tom!

Flirty Tease sure is pretty, just have to love those colours!

Flirty Tease is one of the nicest irises I've seen. I do love it.

Looks great, Tom...you must be at peak, right now.

I am near the house, Arlyn, but the outer beds are just getting going.

The Blooms are coming faster and faster, and I can't keep up with all the pictures. Here's a few more.

Midnight Ember

Hard To Resist. The ruffles!

Starring

Magical Night, I don't like the open standards on this one.

Magical, what's not to love.

Baltimore

Louisa's Song

Easter Bonnet New historic for me.

La Scala clump

That's what I was afraid of. I went mad the moment I saw the intro. I avoided Mid-America this year because I knew I would finally have to buy it, and I was being good and buying iris that Brad recommended (of course they are beautiful iris by my deity Keith Keppel) but they were not Flirty Tease. I sound like a nut job, right?

tveguy3 said: Flirty Tease is one of the nicest irises I've seen. I do love it.

Nope, just like an iris addict like the rest of us on here.

So yeah, 'nut job' sounds about right!

Very high winds here last night. Not sure what kind of mess I'll find out there this morning. More high winds expected today, so picture taking is not going to happen today.

There are way to many opening each day now for me to get pictures of everything and post them, but here are a few for now.


I got this as a door prize from my iris club. I like it a lot.

This one was a bonus. The bloom is very compact. I like it too.

Strawberry Sake, just opened, not relaxed, but with the weather I thought I should take a picture before it got beat up.

What A Beauty

Blushing Grapes, the pink in the falls gets more pronounced after the bloom ages some.

Ninja Warrior, I sure like this one a lot.


Seedling Ready for my Closeup x Reckless Abandon, not sure what to think of this.

Got this one from Debra who I haven't seen much on here this summer.



Magical, It's so nice.

First time seeing this one. I sure like it.

La Scala clump

Loreley clump

I love the seedling!!!
