Old-fashioned iris

Perhaps I should start referring to them as Heritage Iris [a trend these days as people realize that sturdy, proven older varieties are valuable and worth preserving].

 

I was pleased with this shot because I achieved a little bit of bokeh in the two side flowers - something my camera does not do when on automatic settings. I had switched to manual settings to experiment a bit.
