That same NOID iris from last pic.

NOID iris (Mini TB?)

NOID TBI.

I bought this one several years ago at Walmart, and it was labeled as 'Batik', but I don't think it is.

karen great pics - must of taken awhile to download or is that upload?

I think that's upload, and yes, it did take awhile. I think I'm done for tonight. I have more, but will post tomorrow night.

Karen

Oh, and thx, btw!

Very nice, Karen. I like the Madrid iris. And the spiderwort is a pretty weed!

I took some night shots before.

Duchess of Edinburgh.

Astrantia.

That would be a lot of posting, Bill. Wait till my DL's are in bloom! LOL!

LOL! I know what you mean, Allison! I really have a hard time keeping up, too. I don't get enough sleep trying to keep up. I love those blue irises. Do you know the name? That Carnival weigelia is pretty, too.

Karen

imagine there is mulch under here... just wanted to show you guys all the buds on this baby... 1st year it's really starting to show off

I would have to look it up... the tag disappeared

tiny but pretty

Well, let me know if you find out. It will definitely be going on my want list.

Karen

I will look on my word docs tomorrow for you and see if i can find it

^_^

Nuts, you have a ton going on.... looks great.
Victor I LOVE LOVE LOVE that orange slices iris.
Allison, I too want to know the name of your blue iris.

ok Jen on the list too... I will do my best to figure it out... those were one of the first plants I bought.. organization was not good then... just hope I have the name

Gala Madrid is a TB. Definiately not Batik which is 'broken color' not the plicata in the picture. don't know the blue, but very pretty.

I am thinking that blue came from a zebra iris collection from Michigan bulb... but I am off to bed.. nitey nite!

Good night!

OMG.....all I did was go to work today and I can't keep up.

Thanks everyone.

Soooooo much pretty stuff it all looks great.

Bill, the picture of that bird in your pond is fantastic!!

Karen.... great pics! that iris gala madrid is a show stopper! where does one get it?

Allison... those are great alliums. I love those kind. They dry into such interesting ornaments. I'm taking a wild guess at your unknown heuchera. Heuchera Sang. 'monet'. Maybe, maybe not.

Victor.... great pics as always. I love the astrantia for some reason though.

Jo Ann... I really like the pic of the Poppy!

Robin.... i love that last iris!

Mona.... I have just one thought that may help you with the meconopsis. Don't buy them if they are in bud, which means that they are at least 2 yrs. old. They are technically perennials, but they have a strong tendency to be a biennial unless perfect conditions exist. So, after it blooms, it will die. However, if you get a plant that is just a year old, it has a year to get itself established and develop a tap root, the tap root is essential for the plant to live several years after blooming. Anyhow, I've read a tons of stuff on them on how to get them to live to be true perennials, the only them that carried throughout all of those articles was what I just mentioned above.

I know that I'm forgetting something.... sorry!

another columbine shot.

this rhody is quickly making it's way towards the top spots of my fav rhody's

the front of the flower.

anemone or rose ^_^
