Whoa. Why don't I ever get mystery gifts like that???? It sure is RED!!!!! Is it a tall one Bonnie?

I did come across several very small Iris rhizomes sitting on my deck a couple years ago. Someone had dropped them off. I planted them and two years later they bloomed and were my Blue Reflection. That Iris was among the Irises that comprised a box full that I had given my neighbor across the street -- a year earlier. Apparently, they were never planted, and those little rhizomes of Blue Reflection survived sitting in a box (outdoors) for a year. She must have felt guilty for not planting them, and returned them. Shrug! People mystify me -- they ask for rhizomes -- and then never plant them. Sad

Before you order Rogue, Bonnie -- let me check mine and see if I can get you a rhizome this year.

At least she brought them back to you and did not leave them on a shelf in a dark garage or the trunk of her car.

@Muddymitts, LOVE this new thread! If I may make a suggestion though, perhaps add the word RED in the title, that way it will be easy to find and add to for anyone new down the line, or if we want to late go back to it in the future. nodding

I bought this one last year from Napa Iris

This is little MDB Dragon Flamedart


I consider it a red but since it has a white dart/stripe down the falls I do not know if it counts. I need a ruling Mary Ann.

I'll start with Big Apple. It is a self, but has a blend of red, burgundy, and a little purple....So I'm calling it red.



Here's another photo in different lighting:

Bad bad Mary Ann! Red Hawk is considered a bitone, which is why I didn't post my pictures of it. Hilarious! Hilarious!
