Siberian Iris, i'm pretty sure it's called Cape Cod Boys. Planted May 2021. Height 27-32", Zone 3-9, blue with yellow signals.

I don't have photos & our siberian iris grow in shade now. We moved the bed once, but the shade changed it. We do have the historic 'Summer Sky' in bloom, but it is very plain in contrast to more modern siberians.

Sorry posted twice.

Lucy, do your Irises bloom in the shade? Asking for some newly planted Irises in semi shade.

not really, although if you have half day sun, they might be ok. One bed that is shady is where we grow MDBs, because they bloom before the trees develop their leaves. The other bed of siberians will grow, but not bloom any more.

Lovely Sibs! That clump of Ginger Twist is really something.

I have Here be Dragons, but it is in a pot and I haven't seen it bloom yet, so great to see your images of it.

for sharing.

Jim - yes, some will definitely bloom in half day shade. Here is Ginger Twist with slight morning sun;


This is Here Be Dragons also in part morning sun;


One of my all time favourites is Sun Comes Up;


I get all my Sibs directly from Jan & Marty at Joe Pye Weed's Garden - fabulous intros.

Jim ~ Looking good!

Thank you Frank, for having started this Thread. As I've some Japanese Iris, planted as of only last Spring. Which hopefully, I will soon be sharing some more, fairly soon !
(Though it's overcast today, this one hasn't quite yet, fully opened up.)
While I'd thought to share it here, anyway.
I'll have get more familiar with the cv. names, (as previously I'd nearly grown them all, from seeds sown in late Winter, to early Spring.)
Which took about a month, to germinate, & sprout those tiny upright leaves.

It's opening up a little more, while I think it jusf may have suffered from just a bit too much more, sudden increase in sun exposure.
Unless, it wasn't quite adjusted to the additional warmth, from having removed a few tree branches overhead.
(Appears it was,a bit too much, of a sudden change, near the edges.)

While I'm still attempting to figure out, just which cv. it may be, as it was from a "mixed bag", of Japanese Iris, only last Spring. (So they'll all be entirely new ones, to bloom for me.)
