in my opinion it is good to enjoy each season of a particular flower. the reticulata is that beautiful, that they bloom so early in bright colors. of course I´m a bit unhappy that theire season is ending here. if the would flower the whole year, I would not appreciate like i do. the next one will be on the beautiful daffodils, tulips and other flowers, then the other irises, lilies and daylilies be. So each season will be nice and especially.

in relation to my garden, I am glad that the blue color appears good. which is maybe determined on the soil. the iris sibirica setosa, and japonica also show good color. real blue daylily I did have. but purple, lavender, fuchsia. Maybe the daylily (
Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Triple Sunbeam Purpleblue')) contains a little blue and purple. For most of flowers the color is clear and strong. but you can´t compare the kind of like iris have.
