Iris Germanica

This is a German Iris, one of the 300 Iris species. Silly me, I have always called these Bearded Yellow Irises.

You mean to tell me it's NOT an exquisite Bearded Yellow Iris? This past month I've been enjoying our lovely Lavender Bearded Iris... No? Hmmmm...I wonder what it is?!

[Lou Ann]

@Weezilou I know! I used the “Garden Answers” app on my phone, then Googled Iris and learned there are 300 types of irises. Who knew?!
