A bit earlier than last year Iris pamphylica started to flower - first of my second generation seedlings started to flower - my older plants - planted about 8 years ago as small seedlings in their actual place increase very slowly but constant. The length of the leaves is actally about 85cm - and they still should grow a bit.

Phantastic pictures. Knowing where you are living I'm not surprised for so good results with I. pamphylica.

Careful, David, if you only "think" you could .... it may be that you flogged one already and can't remember..... :-\

Enjoying seeing your plants in the sunshine, Hans..... snowing again here.... :P

No Maggi, it was the "stretching" bit I was worried about given the present condition of my back :( I would have remembered the operation ;D

Great Iris histrioides major, Luc!

Thanks for all the kind comments and offers of kidneys...  ::) ;)

Mark, very well spotted, you are certainly right about the Oncos.
Janis you are right, this species is  less complicate here than some Oncos or Junos which can dwindel away in a very short period of time - unfortunately this species increase very slowly vegetatively - two of my plants did not produce any offset in all the years they are growing here - and it is loved very much by cutworms.
Fred I see you are on a good  way to build up a french population of this species. ;)

Yesterday some more flowers were open  :)
