Here are a couple of Iris in bloom in my bulbhouse now

Iris bakeriana

Iris retic

Alan McMurtrie said Iris bakeriana should be blue.    I took several poor photos (lack of good light) of the leaves and the are certainly not retic leaves.

Very nice plant, Arthur!

Here is the reason I love to grow bulbs from seed - a third Iris histrio (in front- also from Turkey) opened it bud today.

They're all lovely Hans, the same but also so very different from each other. Such a good advert for growing from seed.

Very nice from Alan McMurtrie seed.

Mine from that shared purchase are not nearly ready to flower, but some from my earlier purchase will flower soon.  Will post all of them.

I got this iris as bulbs of I. danfordiae 2 years ago. I thought I misslabelled and checked the flowers I ordered same time, but could not find yellow one. Then, I asked the nursery and now it is identified as a McMurtrie's hybrid Iris ‘Summers Day’ :)

A very attractive Iris, Tatsuo.  I like Kris's brown one earlier in this thread.  I look at Alan McMurtrie's website sometimes and drool over all those lovely seedlings which are never going to be available to buy.

Two flowering here now

Thank you, Roma :) Yours are so lovely hybrids, too! And yes, Kris's one is really outstanding and fascinating :o
