Dwarf irises (Iris reticulata) fluttering in the sunshine
Attractive to one and all
Looking wonderful as they naturalize in the meadow grass
A sparkling display of irises back-lit by sun in the orchards at Wimpole, Cambridgeshire

“Nor will I then thy modest grace forget,
Chaste Snow-drop, venturous harbinger of Spring,
And pensive monitor of fleeting years!”

They certainly do. 🙂

Gorgeous. They’re flowering in my garden too.
I was slow to plant my freebies. They are showing in pots, but will going in any day. Enjoy your show!
That’s the way to plant them, one variety en masse. Lovely.
I completely agree.
So pretty, those pops of purple.
Yes, great colour and great effect.
Beautiful! Makes me want to plant hundreds in our lawn!
Me too. Do you think that they would survive deer though?
They are deer resistant and drought tolerant. Hurrah!
Excellent!
