It may be just a tiny, but it is my first iris of the season. Very late this year. This often blooms in late March. I don 't have any information on it. This pretty little purple miniature was here when we bought the house 16 years ago.

It's a beauty Pam.

It's a real cute one!

Oh I like it! The little purple line is pretty.

Very pretty Pam!

It's wonderful!! How kind of the former owner to leave you a gift!!!

Very nice Pam.
I have about a dozen in bud with nothing in bloom yet, but have no small ones to lead the parade.

That is a problem easily solved, Dave!!!

Yeah!! The little guys should be in everyone's garden. Since you are going to new 'digs', it would be an ideal time to rectify that situation !

Thanks All!

Yes Dave, an easy fix! The previous owners left two beds of these on either side of the back porch steps. No name, but sharable amounts!

I do have Snow Maiden thanks to Arlyn, but only planted last year. And hope to add a few small oldies: Tid-bit MTB, Knotty Pine SDB and Sambo MDB.

I want to add Sambo this year, as well.

I did a little work in the gardens this afternoon and found that I have bloom stalks and buds on another NOID purple miniature, De Nile, Blackcurrant, Champagne Elegance and Blatant. Yippee!! Won't be long now!!

Good! that means more pictures on the way.

Found my first named bloom today.....

Rivulet First blossom had extra appendages






Another NOID miniature blooming on the hill.







A bigger batch of the original NOID




The waiting game....

Oh my!

could your purple be 'Regards' an SDB?

Pam - do you have little paths through that bank of iris? I bet weeding is a bit of a chore! But then, it must really shine when everything is in bloom.
