2008 Irises




These are some of the irises we've been collecting over the years, all non-bearded.  The dark indigo, with larger blossoms, is the Louisiana iris, it's the first time in 2 years that it's bloomed.  The other irises are both Siberian irises, and exhibit very different colors, as well as petal qualities.  As soon as the Japanese Irises open up, we'll get those on the blog.  It's going to be a banner year for flowers, it already has been, and looks like it's going to only get better.

Very nice iris pictures, even if it took me a while to find them. If you are interested in more information on Louisianas, I invite you to check out my website, especially the species pages and the several collection of links.
