Thanks Brad! Honorable Lord with those red beards is a must have. It may be my favorite one posted here. I added Reckless Abandon to my buy list when I saw it in one of Tom's posts a few days ago. It is a remarkable iris and your picture of it is awesome. Platinum Passion goes on my 'must see in person' list but if I cannot find it growing locally I may have to grow it to see it. lol I love Scandinavian Gal. I bought Abby Chant (IB) several years ago because the picture looked more like Scandinavian Gal. As it turns out most of the color on the falls is very light blue and just the beard and small area or noticeably blue. This may be due to the extreme weather conditions we have had for the last few years. It is a VE and re-bloomer so I do like it but it can't compare with SG. I also like Golden Gaga which you posted earlier. I have Burnt Crisp on my list (the pictures of it on the AIS site are incorrect I think) and it would be lovely to grow them both.
I love the comments you post with your pictures! Seeing the pics are great but reading about the performance of the iris or how it looks in the light is both enjoyable and informative. smiles
