what is the lovely red in front and the pretty pink and lavender towards the back? These two stand out for me.

Do you think about
1. Code Red
2. Bon Appetite?

Thanks for the information. Here in Portugal they have white and purple blacks that are very early from december into february in starting depending on the "Winter" and blooming into March with the odd ones blooming later. I thought of them as TBI until I saw the real deal. :) They are early in Sweden as well but not so early so it is a nice complement to prolong the season. I hope the warmer climate in Portugal will make the rebloomers do good reblooming and not just the odd ones.

Kind regards

You can be proud of your Iris' Ewelina - they look gorgeous !!  :o

I visited Wisley Gardens last week and saw a trial bed that I found enormous, full of bearded Iris.....  You seem to grow even more of them..

Flowering in Norway since last week: 'Tattler' (the yellow one), 'Yoyo' (the light purple in the middle) and one unknown - possibly 'Vamp'?

The first of your irises is (with large probability) Mary Frances.

Thanks Ewelina,

I think mine has more brown in it's throat than 'Mary Frances'. Or is this normal for this cultivar?

Some of my varietes, for example beautiful Corona Gold don't produce the children. I have it from 2003 and I have this year again 1 rhizome, that flower this year. If I lose my only rhizome I'm unhappy. I cann't find none of grower that has this variety in his offer.
