Here is what greeted me in the iris bed this morning
And upon closer inspection
This is Eagle Landing, a Sutton 2000 introduction. It is registered at 37 inches. This one is 41 inches to the bottom of the bloom. Now that's a tall bearded iris.

Yep, that is one tall Iris.
It’s okay to not know all the answers.

That is a lovely iris, Eric. Nice late blooming surprise in the garden.
Thro' all the tumult and the strife I hear the music ringing; It finds an echo in my soul— How can I keep from singing?
