Almost iris time... again

As the season for irises approaches I thought I'd post a couple of pics to whet the appetite for my favorite flower. I currently have reticulatas blooming in their pots during ths nice warm and sunny spell we are having. They are so cute. I can't wait to add loads more of them to the edges of the new garden where they can be ignored (they love our climate). Will try to get a pic tomorrow for ya'all.

In the meantime, here are some really nice PCIs growing at the home of my friends Elaine and Jerome. They have promised me a start of that gorgeous wine red one. They have a wonderful assortment of varieties they have grown from seeds scattered about their garden.

Beautiful, Mike! Thank you. There is nothing blooming here yet. I'm looking forward to bloom season.

I received an e-mail on Friday from Argyle Acres saying that their web site has been updated. It's time to start my wish list. Thank you for rekindling my interest in these beautiful flowers.

Here's a shot of my little i. reticulata 'Cantab'. It is the bluest of the reticulatas, IMO.
