Some more of the iris I got at Schreiner's Iris Garden many years ago. More keep blooming each day. I am looking forward to going to the Garden in a couple of weeks. I am sure the iris will be wonderful.
I am fascinated by the coloration of the Iris.
Playing with the macro settings of the DSC-T700. Not bad for a thin point and shoot. One of the main reasons I picked this particular camera. For a lot of other things, the noise of the 10MP sensor is just too much, but for a still shots, its not bad at all.
Rescue Iris in Bloom ... this past year our neighborhood has seen many old bungalow's torn down, replaced by new construction. This Iris is a cutting from a 91 year old woman's house that she gave us before she left. We tried to rescue a few more from the flower bed before the house was demolished. The new owner said he was going to save all the old flowers and we could not take any cuttings. The next morning the bulldozer showed up, and the flowers were buried in seconds. We were so happy to see our one cutting bloom ... now we know Laura's Iris will live on and be Enjoyed!
Ze bloeien niet lang, maar als het zover is, word je er helemaal stil van, zoveel schoonheid.Vooral deze diepblauwe knotsen van bloemen, met golvende randen. Hoogte ongeveer 100 cm.
My first flower on this almost legendary Southern species, grown from SIGNA seed sown in 2009. Usually regarded as the closest to red of all the species Iris.
Supposedly tender this has come through the last few winters evergreen and unprotected. I thought perhaps it just needed a really hot summer to flower but, well, check it out.
