| With the risk of annoying you with my undecided answer: it really depends on the shades, tones, any markings (complementing or not) etc. I'm mostly drawn to white or dark purple/blue-ish (either with some yellow) |

| I like the ones with color blends like Carnival Capers. Or Gypsy Lady  Or Travel Trader  Or Mayan Mysterys I like to have something going on like lines, stripes, blends, edges. The color isn't as important, but colorful is to me.  I love the boarder on Mastery  OK, so there's some yellow in all of these, so I maybe I do like the ones with some yellow.

| 'blink' (blue and/or pink with contrasting or not beards) But this year I did really enjoy the deep orange of Copatonic and the Red of Quapaw and...... so no telling what I will be enthralled by next spring. 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? |

| Come to think of it, of all the pics I put on facebook, everyone wanted Coral Capers. She was the hit of the garden! I didn't have one white bloom this year. Maybe I won't love white the best, but I think I will. Don't make fear based decisions. |

| I love a white iris, Linnea. And they make all the other blooms look better too. 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? |
