.... I didn't have much of a chance to do any crosses, but here are a few maiden blooms from crosses made several years ago. Nothing much in the way of introduceables, (made up word), but the first seedling pict has possibilities

Red Skies X Rippling River

... and showing its branching structure -- along with my dear old mom :)

Applause Line X Fashionista

T- Rex X Rippling River

In Love Again X Mt. Vesuvius

Sunshine on my Shoulders X Final Episode -- very sweet fragrance on this one!

Cameo Dawn X Safari Sunset

I don't care much for yellows, but I'd pay for this one.

It’s okay to not know all the answers.

Nice branching on on the first one. I agree with Deb, I love that yellow one...you could name it Lovius.

The first (cuz purple and great branching) and the last... that pink on the standards of the last one is really nice and enhances the orange.

Evaluating an iris seedling, hopefully for rebloom

I really love the yellow one and the last one. But I have a thing about peach colored iris.

Then I like the t-Rex x Rippling River, well, I love all of them.

Really love that yellow and secondly the Peach. But I would also probably go after that 1st one for the branching. Thanks for sharing these pics!!!

If you think there is no more beauty left in the world...Plant a garden!!!

My grandmother and I were looking at your iris photos TBMan. We especially liked your T- Rex X Rippling River, In Love Again X Mt. Vesuvius, Sunshine on my Shoulders X Final Episode, and Cameo Dawn X Safari Sunset. We are also wondering what you will name them? Or have you named them?

Not only people give others signs, but plants do too.

Like them all, especially Red Skies X Rippling River. And T- Rex X Rippling River reminds me of some Joe Ghio beauties Incantation & Olympiad. All very nice!

As promised the other day, photos of the iris I bought or traded with Tim (TBMan). The box they are in is a big box (24"x14"). If Tim is going to want to do trades next year (hopefully) you might want to really think about it! Wonderful trades and bonus plants given with the trade!
purchased iris (with 2 Christmas Eve sent)

:hurray:
Trade box
Again, I love the tags

Greetings and welcome to the iris forum :)
These seedlings are not named, but there are possibilities for introduction on the Red Skies X Rippling River cross, and the In Love Again X Mt. Vesuvius cross.
