Thanks, Pulsator is one I got last year, so it's the first time I've seen it. I took another picture after it warmed up to the 50's and it relaxed some and I think looks better. Also a couple others.

Just a name note" 'Cat's Eye' no s. I am enjoying the dwarf photos & glad that more people are seeing my favorite iris class. Our club show is on Memorial Day & hope that some SDBs are left in good shape for it.

Thanks Lucy I have edited it. I have a quite a few of the little guys now, and I ordered a quite a few this year too. Today it was 32 degrees out, and I still had two open. I just took the pictures and it's still only 36 degrees out. It didn't seem to bother these two.

It's a rapid grower too, Thin it some every year to keep the clump down to size.

woops, I meant to edit my post to change the name from Yummy Accents to Yummy Accent. I seem to have a thing about adding "s" to things, I must have hit quote instead.
