| I really like Black Magic Woman and Blueberry Bliss, too. They both have performed well for me. Some of my favorites starting with "B" are: Berserk   Boundless - This subtly colored beauty blooms early and then reblooms.  |

| I really like BERSERK'S bright orange beard. I am drawn to those for some reason. Nice ones Tom. This thread may be dangerous to my pocket book.  This is one that I added last year from Iris City Gardens. I love the pictures on here. I hope it does well. Bee Kind, make the world a better place. |

Burst of Joy  Brazen Beauty Better than Butter Beauty Becomes Her Born This WayBorn This Way is really more peachy than this photo shows and more violet than purple. I haven't gotten a good photo of it recently. |

| I didn't mention that B is also for "broken", which I find fascinating as each bloom is different from the previous bloom. "Luck favors the prepared mind." - Thomas Jefferson |

evelyninthegarden said:Better than Butter was outstanding in its first year bloom. Thank you Andrea! I'm really glad it did well for you, Evelyn. I was going to list it among my favorite "B" irises and forgot. |
