I planted about 40 irises over the past few years, all over the garden on Beaver Island. Usually none of them flower, so I am particularly excited to see this one in bloom. It's one of two stalks that has buds. I'm hoping that the buds on both stalks make it - this is the first.
Beautiful details and light. Irises that don’t bloom are often buried too deep - maybe you need to raise the others a little? Hope all your buds come through!
