Bonnie, that violet with white beards looks like one I have. Love the contrast of the white! Love the Louisianas! They really have come closer to true red than any other Iris I've seen. Do you grow Sinfonietta?

This pic is a very true representation of the color- it's the bluest Iris I've seen or grown.

I feel sure I have that amazingly tall Sib too, what a stately presence in the garden!

Debra, you've got a beautiful bunch there! I think the grape soda scented one is a pallida, I keep some around because they were the first Irises I loved as a kid. That wonderful yellow, that I suspect is a spuria, is a ray of sunshine! That is one of the happiest looking Irises I've ever seen- just makes me smile!
