Lucky you, for the rain. We sure could use some. The Iris in these parts (the South) have come and gone. The ones in this yard are the same color, but with a yellow etching of highlights in the center of the blooms, at the base of the petals. That's a wonderful photo, thanks for posting it, Siwsan.
