This was supposed to be "Sterling's Ladylove" which it is not. Got this from an Iris vendor in 2012. I am planning on emailing them (I had another bloom wrong and lost one other) but wanted to have a suggested name before sending the note. Any ideas? Very large flower.

Don't know what it is, but it sure is lovely. Drooling over Kilimanjaro Sunrise and Art of Rafael. Drooling

You have really beautiful gardens - can't believe it is an "off" year! And Thumbs up to the Habit/Victoria Falls clump.

This is two years running where Naples has been stunted. Beginning to wonder if it is just a crappy iris. Stunted and crappy form.

I am starting to really like this iris. It looks sooooooo much better in person
