Welcome to the iris forum, Coen. Very nice garden you have.

Thro' all the tumult and the strife I hear the music ringing; It finds an echo in my soul— How can I keep from singing?

Irises are a good hobby to start with, but hang around here and we'll make it an obsession!

Politicians are like diapers, they need to be changed often, and for the same reason.

I grow Patina too, but it is paler than yours. Maybe mine is in too much shade? Is yours in full sun?

Welcome Rik.
Your temperature is close to many areas in N.A. [10-86 in F]. Gardens look good. We are jealous of what is available in EU!

Rik, your flowers are looking great. It will be fun to see what blooms from your cross seedlings.
