| Those are very beautiful, Mary. 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? |

| I LOVE your photo of Barnie. Very velvety and a nice form. 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? |

The iris cristata have taken over my shade garden this year. I think they thrive on rain and cold. They are native to this area and grow all through the woods on my property.   Iris cristata 'Abbey's Violet' |

| Beautiful blooms Mary! My Barnie opened today too. I will try to post a picture tomorrow. • “Whoever said, ‘Do something right and you won’t have to do it again’ never weeded a garden.” – Anonymous |

I am annoyed by this NOID. It does not have a tag, and it does not match anything in my records. It is so full of itself that one would think I would remember having planted it. It is about 24 inches tall. I am enclosing multiple pictures. Suggestions anyone?    And this picture of it before it started blooming. This iris is a hot mess.  |

| Mary, I like your "Hot Mess" NoID. I have an NoID that is all over the place at my house.  When you thin them out I would gladly take a few off your hands. I'll have tons of mine... |

| Richard, I will be happy to send a few your way this fall. They will definitely need to be divided. |

I checked out Epicenter's children and Brickle is about the right height and may be a possibility: |

| Check out Keppel's iris in our database. He has many that look like yours. "The chimera is a one time happenstance event where the plant has a senior moment and forgets what it is doing." - Paul Black |

Totally_Amazing said: I thought it looked a lot like Epicenter as well. If it were not for the height, I would say that it looks like a dead ringer for Epicenter. It definitely is not Brickle. |

| A few iris that bloomed yesterday. Wee Stroll   Little Glow Worm Bewilderbeast—I know some of you do not like this iris, but I giggle every time I see her. When an Iris makes you laugh, you know you're on to a good thing.  NoID 'I prefer to lean thank you very much'  NoID 'Yes I Am the Most Elegant Iris in the Garden'   |
