Hurray, today I spotted bloom stalks coming up on a few of the Dutch Iris. The ones looking to bloom are some that are in between my TB iris in the mid backyard TB iris bed.

I planted my dutch iris two years ago, nothing last fall. But I have already ordered more from Brent&Beckies and intend to get more yet. I have decided on were to put some new ones.

The flowers are just so stunning. Look like iris and yet nothing else looks like dutch iris. And the vivid color combinations are fantastic. Unlike true iris, dutch iris are small bulbs. Look like onion sets to me. Hilarious!
