Arlyn, I have plenty of the one in that second photo if you decide you want some of it.
It’s okay to not know all the answers.

Thank You! Everyone, I think I'm drunk with beauty right now. I guess I'll be able to face going out to feed horses soon, but, of course I'll need another dose of color when I return.

Just got my Mid-America catalog, now I can get more of my habit fixed, but this might cost me lots of money, Hilarious!

I like the form on Love Lilt. Rare Treat did not like it here. Breakers which was planted next to it grew like gangbusters.

Not sure which one you mean. The one on the second row at the end is a Daniel Deronda. The first one on the third row is a Filigree. Filigree is short and does well in containers. I kept it in one for several years, just planted it in-ground this past Fall.

Filigree

Daniel Deronda is going on the second year, so I expect a lot from it.

It's the second one Daniel Deronda that I like best. Oh my, no iris pics to look at this morning, best go back to bead and sleep. Sad
