For her final performance April has cast irises, pinks and phlox with a small supporting cast:)
The first Siberian iris to appear is this beauty from Carla of My Back Yard. It was a special trade that also included by tall noid daisy mum.
Japanese Roof Iris ~ Iris tectorum ~ grows side by side with Epimedium in my best part shade spot in the garden.

ReplyDeleteOh my, I just love your Iris Rare Treat. It is just beautiful. The Eastern Bluestar is a new bloom to me so I will have to look it up but I love the blue blooms on it. I bet the dianthus smells so wonderful.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures! I finally got Siberian Iris that would grow after local trades -- most of the ordered ones never made it. Japanese Roof Iris is such a beauty isn't it?
ReplyDeleteI am waiting to see if any of the Rare Treat blooms here this year. It's wonderful from any angle and especially nice with the bright blue background of the sky.
