Author Message   Mariezp  My Weather My Time Posted on Monday, April 09, 2007 - 12:37 pm EST :    I am really excited because all the iris I planted last year are all starting to bloom! Here are my first two so far. First is Be Mine. The color is a very pale peachy-pink but the blooms are huge! Next, is Bountiful Harvest. Beautiful and aptly named. It is covered in blooms! I can see buds coming on everywhere so, hopefully, I will have some more photos to share soon.

I just have one bloom so far, but they are looking happy as ever. This after a very disappointing fall when I lost several bearded iris to rot. Amazing how tough irises are. Bountiful Harvest is a pretty one. I think I have the peach one -- Be Mine? I didn't know the name.

I just planted them last fall, so some may not bloom until next year.

'Course that one has southern exposure. Spuddigger - CO, Zone "5"
