These came free from somewhere, don't recall where.  Never grown Iris before but well chuffed - so are the bees.   ;D  G xx

Georgeous G.  I also love irises.  I planted some in our roadside garden by the grass verge  outside our bungalow, but do not get many flowers as they are growing under tall conifers but the leaves look so nice I left them in to multiply.  This year I got one beautiful bloom, I was over the moon, until the next day I found it had been snapped off by the local yobs :( >:(  I don't know why I bother :'(
Happy gardening all...........Pat
