I love my dwarf iris! They increase so well, always are first to bloom in the garden.
Here's an example of what a difference a year makes.
These clumps are 2 years old from 1 traded rhizome.

This is just one reason why I use preen after weeding

Today's beautiful Dwarf iris and 1 Intermediate before the incoming rain.
Most of these will have some available for sale after bloom season. So stay tuned!!!

Ive been anxiously awaiting this day! And so it begins bloom season. I don't like to take first bloom pictures. So here's the first to have more than 1 bloom!

I'm so looking forward to some serious garden time on Sunday.
My short 4 day vacation only yielded 4 hours of weeding and 3 days of rain.
Sunday calls for 81° and perfectly partly cloudy...ahhh
Should get annex 1 & 2 completely weeded and maybe even the front rock garden of I can hold up that long.
Then all iris will be ready to show off

I decided to repost my pictures with photo credit.
