Mornin Tom
I not only dont know its name I just found out it didnt belong tro the former owners but was one my daughter moved here from her old house. The Memorial Day party was explosive.
We are a forgiving group especially when I told her I only borrowed 1 rizome.

Sorry there is no name.She has a pink unnamed also.
She dug these herself at an Iris Farm that was on her way to work.This guy just grows iris,isnt a hybredizer and sells clumps to anyone.

They're all lovely. It really is a great time of the year.

My real Silverado opened today.

Swingtown is a favorite and is much more of a red violet than this photo.

Got a couple more pics between rain drops, may have to take better ones if there is ever a stop to this rain.

This is a NOID, but it is very similar to Instructor

I will have to take another shot at this one when it's more relaxed and not all wet.
