Of SDB's I would have to say Sparks Fly with Teagan and Here Come The Clowns as runners up.

This is another that wowed me.

Mandarine

• Tall Bearded Iris (Iris 'Mandarin Morning')

My heart stopped when I viewed this picture.
Spring Green Thumb, thank you for posting the great pictures!
Edit to take out "went".

'Mandarine' seems to bloom forever. You will love it. Big and beautiful. The picture doesn't do it justice.

Do you remember where you got it from? I found Mandarin Morning in the database but "Mandarine" shows it was introduced in 1920. (?) All the other Iris with Mandarin in the name do not have pictures in the database.
If it's Mandarin Morning I already have it but it didn't bloom this year.

Love your "All About Spring" picture. I think you should add it to the data base.
And yes, please post your second most favorite. I would love those it and any other pictures your willing to post.

I think it's Mandarin Morning.

Oh golly!

Don't know who you are, SpringGreenThumb -- but your Irises are gorgeous.

Spring Green Thumb, gorgeous irises, simply divine! Some of those will have to go on my want list.

to the Iris forum. Please keep posting those lovely pics!!

I think you are right. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I bought a new property to grow my plants upon and I lost some tags in the transplant. I know many names by heart but hundreds of names to remember between all species. Still working on getting everything mapped back in correctly and looking them up online. It's been a real job this spring.

I accidentally came across this gardening sight and thought it was nice to find others who wouldn't give me a blank stare when I talk about plants.

I'll have to figure out how to put it in the data base. 😉
