As the rains and winds keep coming I discovered this iris laying among all of the vegetation. This particular variety does not withstand much weather other than dry sunshiny days. I have planted this kind in a lot of areas and the stems just give out and collapse.
This old fashioned variety stands strong and firm, putting out these orchid like blooms. I moved some of this iris to a new location last summer and this plant didn't hesitate to bloom right away this spring.

Just love this pretty iris...this is actually two different flowers, right? The first has such a beautiful golden throat!
We don't have irises now so I really enjoy you sharing yours.
