Raging Tide one of my favorites


Brilliant idea

Tiny Dancer and Accessible are my favorites today.

Everyone always posts so many beauties here but right now I really love Raging Tide.

Toronto here, and the blues.

I would like to find Graceous Curves at Borglums this year. Or something similar.

Boy, Hollywood Lights looks a lot like Cat Call, and a bit like Carnival Capers. I have Toronto, Brilliant Idea, and Haunted Heart, but they will be a while yet before they open here. Is Raging Tide a bouquet? or do they grow that close together? You got my mouth watering, lol I only have 13 TB's open out of around 325. If pacing up and down the rows would help, they'd all be open by now! I've been waiting all day on "Expect Wonders" But we've got a cold and stormy day here, so I think it's waiting, along with about 5 or 6 others.

Tom, just enlarged your avatar photo. That cat looks like the Egyptian statues of Bastet. What a face.

My vote is for *Accessible* and *Popstar* -- if Popstar is the red one!!

lol, That's Mr. Kitty to you, thank you very much! About 10 years ago on a very cold and rainy October evening, I heard this horible racket outside the barn. I opened the door and in walked "Mr. Kitty" cold, wet and hungry. I gave him a warm dish of milk and some cat food, and he hasn't left since. It took about a year before he'd let me touch him, two years before he'd let me pick him up, but only for short times. I guess he owns me now. He's getting pretty old, and not sure how much longer he'll be around, but at times I think he might actually like me! When it's convenient.

Betja..Lemon cloud should be called Lemon Meringue Pie..when I saw that photo, I thought of my Mother's lemon meringque pie..Yummy!

Tom it is growing in a clump and they are just huge flowers this year it is a really nice one Ill get a shot in of the whole clump in a day or two today was really good had a early morning storm with alot of rain and some 60 mph winds i spent the day staking flowers didnt have too much damage just lost a few and had a lot more open up today we should be in full bloom towards the middle of the week.

Mary Ann yes popstar is the red one it has a real unique color to it.

'Tiny Dancer' shows that the dwarfs can be as much fun as the TBs.

These were some of the others that are opening up today

Adriatic Waves

Oh lovely, especially Adriatic Waves.

So many beauties if I had the room and energy it would be tempting to plant lots more.

Indeed, so many beauties. This entire thread gives me
a great catalog of iris to view when I am ready to order
for next year. Just lovely iris, and so many.

Tiny Dancer, Flame Amber and so many others are breathing taking. Had over 10,000 marthon runners run by my iris beds this morning. Too bad that with the heavy rain they weren't looking their best.

You all have soooo many plants. All are beauties.

Runners had a treat.
