Thanks! mine are just starting-I must have a few mid-late ones. I only know the names of a few. I dismantled my Iris garden for lack of enough sun last year-and have them around the yard, waiting to see the colors so I can transplant them by color groupings. Gardening never ends :eek:

Hi Karma-no it has no scent at all that I can tell. I bought it from Brecks many years ago and of course lost the tags. Your plant pictures are absolutely gorgeous. I'm jealous!

Hey Boops, which page is this one on. If it's an iris, we have several near black; Hello Darkness and Before the Storm. Let me know
which page and I'll look it up.

That would be 'Our' Aquilegia/columbine that we have named 'karma.' The photo next to it is the front and side views.
She is stunning and different.
