Is #1 a blue flag iris?
Is the #2 a Louisiana iris? and maybe #3 also L. iris?

Hi Betsy

Yes, the first pic is Iris virginica, blue flag, but not sure if it is variety virginica or variety shrevei....both grow well in Texas.

Here is a link that may be of use to you.

both 2 and 3 could well be cultivars of La irises...the link below has tons of photos...maybe it will help you determine which ones you have.
