Whereas I love tulips I think they are too distracting in this picture of the Iris.

Oh, don't delete it! I love that photo. I love color echoes. There are already enough photos of pallida 'Variegata' without any distractions.

I think there is value in seeing how a plant can contribute to the beauty of a garden in combination with other plants if the plant is a prominent part of the picture. I also added one just of pallida to the data base. Thanks Zuzu

Sorry I don't mean delete, it is a lovely shot. Just not showing Iris pallida to its best advantage. Which IMO is the point of pictures in the database.

Forget I said anything. I didn't realize it was part of a larger group of pictures of Iris pallida.
