Arlyn - that multi-bloom shot of Autumn Twilight is gorgeous.

Thanks ! That seems to be a tendency of many of the 'older" Re's......opening several blossoms at the same time......almost a 'single stalk bouquet' . It does make for an interesting look....from a distance, but, up close, you can see that the blooms are so crowded together that it impedes their opening correctly. I wish I had counted the buds on that plant this year....it was a staggering number

I want to recognize David Schmieder. He has mainly done medians, but now is working with I cristata ( the crested iris) & he is the only one who hybridizes, all others are collected. Photos of those are on the Joe Pye Weed site.

Seasons in the Sun (T. Johnson 2014)

It's on my must have list.

Mine too Rob, mine too.

Mine too..... right at the top!

J.T. Aitken has introduced a number of Intermediates.. This is one of the two IB's that I have of his.
Champagne Encore (Aitken 1997)

You beat me to it, Sherry....he was my pick for tomorrow !......Have to give him "double duty'

Sorry Arlyn, I went through my lists looking to see who hadn't been mentioned yet... that was the first name that came up

Not to forget the ladies....

Oops put picture in wrong thread.

Still honoring all the great Keppel Irises. Here's Fancy Idea, Keppel 2012

I like that one Tom. Almost looks like a luminata.

It is a Luminata. If you haven't visited the Mid America facebook page lately, you will want to see some of the new seedlings that are posted on there. Some will blow you away for sure!

This one is quite unique and lovely. Dragon King by Richard Tasco

I'll "double our fun" with another of Terry Aitken's intros....DOUBLE YOUR FUN (2000) IB



Nice color, very dependable....and a dependable rebloomer, here in 5a, as well !

here's a link to a list of his intros.....in just about all types of iris ! A very 'well rounded" hybridizer !

Why has the way pictures enlarge changed on this site? I use to click on the picture and the entire frame filled with the picture. Now it has a large white border and the picture isn't as large. I thought it may be just my computer at home, but it is happening here at work to.

@dave

I made it this way so that if the image is larger than your screen, it makes the image fit your screen so you can see the whole thing without scrolling.

@dave Only you still have to scroll to see it, and you see less of it at one time. You got a better view the old way. Too bad it doesn't open a window that you can maximize to make it fill the whole screen.
