Last year we noticed one blue iris among the purple and thought it was just a fluke. But we did mark it and move it in the fall, hoping to start a new patch. This year that one didn't bloom at all but we have 2 more stalks of blue in the old patch. I remember now that we got some iris along with the yellow daylilies from Digby. They had never shown themselves so I forgot about them. What a wonderful surprise! The blooms are huge and they smell wonderful.
Smelly and blue? What more could you ask for. I think this is my favorite of your Iris. Going back to Digby soon?
ReplyDeleteI might be convinced to bring you one of the 3 I have when I come out :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty big sacrifice when you only have 3 and they are your prettiest iris. You know me, I won't say no but I will wait until your patch is bigger too if you would rather.
