That's a lovely flower Andrew and on a very well grown plant.

@Susan: If you want to keep them alive, it`s mayby better to cover them (protection -rain) or to pot them and raise indoor ?

Gerhard,
 I am saving up for a state of the art polytunnel with a double skin and sides that drop down. I am hoping that  will be perfect for Junos and other bulbs that flower early. Until then they will have to make do along with everything else in the gritty beds outside.
David,
Torval dara is prehaps a bit darker than shown, the sun was striking it ( I know a rare phenonena around here)
Thanks to all you europeans sending your lovely weather over here for a few days, it makes a lovely change. Spring is in the air.

Stunning flowers.  I do hope I can work out the whole juno thing and manage to grow them successfully.  I can feel another addiction coming on if I do!!  ;D

Dirk, such an Iris one would spot at 200 meters, and have a run for it.
