This Iris magnifica 'Agalik', from Janis, has been in the open garden for a number of years and flowers reliably.

I am Michael and they look a treat. Obviously very happy in their new home and probably getting much better care than they were putting up with previously. ;D

Thank you, David.

A slender Juno. I got it as "Iris spec. Afghanistan." Can anyone identify it please?

My first Juno - from Kurt Vickery seed sown 2009. I know this is the easiest of the group but I am still pleased. The references I have seen all give the colour as various shades of lilac including nearly white. I cannot see any trace of colour on this flower. Is there a form "Alba"?

Thank you David & Maggi.
 I now need to find a suitable place in the garden for them. It doesn't look as if it will stand up to our Anglesey gales too well.

a couple from the garden

Hi,

Both these were transplanted into the garden after a fitful performance in a pot.
They're both in free draining soil and receive plenty of sun and loving the garden.
The magnfica alba is now up to 7 flowering stems and looks a picture,

Regards,

David

Thanks David.
there seem to be no reason to torture these easier juno's in a pot when they grow so easily
in the open garden.
I can feel some more retail therapy on its way.
There are so many lovely forms of magnifica...
