Tall Bearded Iris "Fresh Start". 5.25.19 |
Today's "Iris of the Day" is "Fresh Start", a newer introduction from Schreiners'. It's a big flower, tall stem. Fell down in the rains, so I tied it to a bamboo stick. Nice color and bright appearance. Not much by way of fragrance This is not a "me too" iris in my bed. No others in my garden look like it.
Among the others, "Edith Wolford" lightened up when fully open, so now is the typical appearance.
"Accent" is a blooming machine. It also held up in the rain.
New, reblooming variety "I'm Back" has a nice flower, but the stems are very short. I suspect that's because this is it's first year, and the rhizomes have not built up enough power to make a taller stalk. I hope so, otherwise it would be culled. One foot is just too short for such a big flower.

"Padded Shoulders" is also kind of a blooming machine. Very nice.

"Immortality" continues to shine. It's almost luminescent.
