Well this is a surprise. I'm sure these iris were meant to be white. But they are a wonderful lilac blue. I adore bearded iris and these are now a cultivar I'm not sure about. Last year they didn't flower at all but maybe because of the 3 months of hot sun, this year they're making up for it. Absolutely stunning a real treat in the early May sunshine. In the late evening the sun shines through the leaves, which just adds to the drama which is unfurling. Soon the dark varieties like Kent Pride will burst forth. I can't wait.
