Although they are gone now, Adriatic Waves looked good this year. I'm so confused, I don't know what I have and haven't posted so far, and I'm too lazy to go back and look, so you may be getting a repeat.

It is a nice one. Seems to have a long bloom season too.

Tom,

Lovely pictures as usual. But I am confused. Back about three pages are two pictures of Dancing Days but one of the pictures has been put in the database and is marked Gambling Man. My memory of Gambling Man is that it is brighter.

You're correct! Thanks for pointing out my error, I have both, and must have put it into the wrong section. It is Dancing Days, not Gambling Man.

Catch My Breath, What a nice one to see this late in the season. Gotta enlarge this one to really see it.

I remember the description of this one in Mid-America when it first came out "not a strong grower" but they have since removed that line; guess they couldn't sell many with too much truth!

I think if you click on the star at the bottom it will go to your "save" page.

Thanks Bonnie!

French Riviera starts blooming mid season, but continues into the late season. It's one that's still blooming here.

Grand Coquette is the tallest iris I have, and it really stands well without support.
