I saved some seed from the yellow iris fourth one down last year and they are coming along quite nicely.

Looking forward to next year to see how they turn out!

Beautiful Tee Gee.  I love them too but, while a lovely soft yellow and a deep purple one have already flowered, the rest, including the Dutch iris are still to bloom and the sibiricas are only just opening up.

They are lovely Tee Gee and my favourite flower too, especially the bearded varieties.  Do you have the names of the two bearded lilac coloured irises shown in pictures 1 and 5 please? They are stunning.

They are actually the same variety and sorry I do not have a name for them.
