This is my iris!!!!
I bought a set of irises a few years back and one rainy season most of them rotted, all except for this one. When I received it someone hand mislabeled it portrait of Larry.. I of course thought that was cool. but when I saw the official tag it was Lorrie. This is the actual blue that you see when you view it. The camera hasn't altered it. It is one of my favorites. The falls actually stick straight out instead of drooping.
I have found that there are certain iris varieties that are more hardy than others. The superstition iris and this iris both grow with great vigor. The rhizomes are large, the leaves are thick and strong and they bloom profusely.
Have a view of my daily photos or photos from my past. We all need to document the world around us visually. What I see is mostly what you get.
