Here's my purple Noids along the fence line. They must have been introduced well
before the '80's, because of where I got them. They've been dormant
for years until we dug up and fertilized and moved them.

They need about a half day of sun & certainly dividing helps bloom.

I've had this one for quite a while... Purchased as 'Aphrodisiac'.. not that, or 'Barbara My Love'..

Two more of many NO ID's, but I really like these:





The weekend is almost here so maybe I can get some better pictures in the light of day:)

Would love to see them in better light, Barbara!!

Even in that light, I love the last one!!!

I would think the beard color might help in ID of the last one.

Anyone know what this one is?
It's more rosy tan in the garden.

Ann, on your yellow take a look at Gold Ring. I have that one and it looks kinda close.

Rob, for your 3 look at Jazz Festival

Thank you, Lori! I'll check out Gold Ring.
We are just about neighbors...I live by Ponca.

LOL, I didn't even look at where you lived! We are neighbors, Ponca is not that far at all. If you want a piece of Gold Ring to test, I will send you one.

Thank you, Lori! Sounds great...I'll trade you something.

I rec. several iris from my SIL in OR. She lives near Schreiner's(I know, I'm jealous, too)and she gets a lot but not all of hers from them. The problem is, she doesn't keep track of names. I would be content with this one being 'NOID pink' if no one knows it. The snow we had may have affected the bloom, too.

Rob:
Of your 1-16 NOIDS, the first and last one looks just like my Iris Germanica which Mr. PA posted a great reference to on the recent Historics forum. #5 may be Paul Black if it has a red/orange beard. I LOVE #7! No help though. #13 looks exactly like the one I just posted on blooming in KY, possibly Rare Treat if it has PBF. All are lovely although I prefer the modern ones (but they do not always survive).
I am so frustrated when something I bought or traded does not ring true to name but the guessing games are sometimes fun.

Rob, how about Sapphire Hills for #7?

Hello, I have posted on the Dayliliy forum for a year or two, but first time here. I have a ton of Iris, all noids, and not the fault of the wonderful lady who gave them to me, she takes the time to write the names on the plant leaves, I have just never taken the time to make a map, until last year and don't you know, I can't find it. Any ways, the first year she gave me 72 different Iris and she has given me more every year. I have got to the point that I had my wife list free Iris on her Facebook and have given hundreds away, they multiply quickly. Now that I have given you all a little back ground on how I started growing Iris, here is a picture of my first tall bearded bloom of the year and a pic of a dwarf clump, they have been blooming a little while.



I found a better picture of the dwarf Iris.

Nice iris !! That little spider thinks so , Too !

Gale, That is a really nice Plicata there. You will have to post more pictures as they bloom, maybe someone on here will recognize some of them.
