Irises

Post by Shnookie » Thu Jun 03, 2021 12:01 pm

Some of my irises are blooming. Mostly the dwarf bearded irises. A lot of them are fragrant so it smells really nice in the garden. The tall ones will bloom a bit later.

Here's one that opened lately. It's called Rusty. It usually looks less red and more brownish, but I took the picture in the sun.

This one was new last year. It's called Forever Violet. It's a miniature bearded iris.
