I have all of those, but have only gotten to see Got the Picture and Front of the Line bloom so far. I hope Chivalrous and Exploding Galaxy make an appearance next year Crossing Fingers!

I have all of them too. I only got to see Got The Picture bloom last year. Exploding Galaxy tried to bloom, but the hail storm took care of that.
All By Design kept rotting and I have a tiny little fan started before it got cold, I'm not expecting it to make the winter.

Chivalrous is still alive, but not doing much. Hope it grows.

Front of the line (I got two rhizomes) is growing well, but hasn't bloomed yet, maybe next spring.

Path To Heaven (I got two rhizomes) One died completely, the other is a weak fan.
Politicians are like diapers, they need to be changed often, and for the same reason.

Tom, that hail storm made sure all of us miss a lot of beauty from your garden this year. I sure hope you will have a good iris season next year with no storms or other extreme weather to ruin your blooms. Crossing Fingers! Crossing Fingers! Crossing Fingers!

Kind of odd but those intros I got last year collectively aren't doing great other than Front of the Line. The ones I got this past August are settling really well. They are in two different garden beds so that may have an impact on their different levels of success.

Sounds familiar, Liz. If you ever discover what makes some irises thrive and others not so much, I'm all ears I'm all ears!
