Last fall I planted three new bearded irises and two of the six bulbs bloomed. How lovely they were when they bloomed this spring – and it makes me wonder what color the third pair is.


I’m thinking that a clump of pink irises would be pretty in my spring garden but I’m also thinking I would like some Japanese Iris. I think I need to make a decision so I can get them for fall planting. Today I’m focusing on making quilts to take to Florida for a church quilt project. More to come on that. I sure am glad that I’m retired!
Cee also posted a beautiful bearded iris for today’s FOTD.
These are stunning! I tend to favour the deeper coloured irises like your first one but I reckon pink ones would look very pretty in a cluster 🙂

I was thinking the same thing. I wonder if I have the soil and the patience to wait for a cluster. 🙂

Too many flowers? I don’t think so! These are very different and very striking. I don’t remember seeing pink ones very often.

I haven’t either, but the last photo in on of Cee’s recent posts had some and I though, wow.
