I'm almost at the end here, and I have a few that don't fit elsewhere:

STOP FLIRTING - My favorite -- tall, vigorous and beautiful

RESONANCE - Sometimes it looks blue, other times beige-grey -- Another really vigorous one!

CHOCOLATE ECSTASY - This one is really a milk chocolate/dark chocolate color, but I couldn't capture it correctly with my camera

I Must Have It - so glad to have chosen this one as a bonus from Mid-America last year. Based on how it looks right now, it is going to be a rapid increaser here.

Haunted Heart - wish I had bought this one last year. Hopefully, that will be rectified this year.

Ticklish - IB, really regret not buying this one last year because I can't find it for sale this year

Just Crazy - just wish I had a better picture

Gosh, I totally forgot about JUST CRAZY -- It's just beautiful and I really love it! I purchased it last year, and I took pictures at Mid-America and Keith Keppel's in 2009 and 2010:

And HAUNTED HEART -- what can I say? Absolutely gorgeous! I can't believe I forgot about these two. Thanks so much for including them, Kent!

I think I must have I MUST HAVE IT! I put it down as a suggestion for a bonus plant at Mid-America this year, and if I do not get it this year I'll have to order it next year. Really gorgeous color!

Nice ones, I planted Haunted Heart last year, hoping to see it's bloom this year. I was going to add a few pics, but they don't upload for some reason. Just keeps trying, but nothing going... will have to try later.

OMG Betty, Stop Flirting is simply awesome. Do you have it or did you take pictures in OR?

Thanks everyone for posting pictures, thanks to all of you I have ordered too many for this year. I have no idea where they are going.

Wow, gorgeous! That is one cool looking iris, STOP FLIRTING!

And Kent, love the coloring on I Must Have It, I think I Must Have It too!

It's always fun to enlarge each image to see all the beautiful details, that's what I enjoyed about Tom's beauties, great colors and veins, just lovely!

And Jerry, that is one special looking historic, they are great classic beauties.

Forgot to add images for this thread.

I think I would classify this as more beige than yellow, it's HONEY SCOOP and has rebloomed for me the past few years in Nov.

I love this one! PRAETORIAN GUARD



RUSH CREEK I think can pass for the brown category, a rusty copper brown.



I took this shot at Schreiner's but hope mine blooms this year, so many to look forward to, only a few weeks away now!
