Oh Mary Ann, that is gorgeous! I love the warm tones too. Both are beautiful. I have put Puff the Magic on my need list. Its beard is wonderful.

I bought an iris at a spring plant sale and the following week it bloomed. Neal and Paul, if you have any idea about what type of iris this is I would appreciate it. At first I thought it was a LA but it is very short and the blooms are small. If it is a LA then perhaps it is one that was taken from the wild and not a hybridized one?

this is the flower bud

Thro' all the tumult and the strife I hear the music ringing; It finds an echo in my soul— How can I keep from singing?
