Oh, sure hope it behaves, lovely colors.
Am I seeing wine colored striping underneath?

Been talking with Adam, offlist.  Sent him this shot and decided you
all might enjoy it.  This was taken by a better photographer that I, with
better equipment.  Posted my shot 6-13-11.
 
Thing is, the foliage behind it makes it look dinky little, and it's not.  This was
shot in the swampy, north-facing slope, facing up to higher ground.  It's
actually above average height for a TB.  And, yes, the falls are that dark,
especially newly-opened.  I had said before it had clean hafts.  Not quite true -
minimal haft marks.
 
If it behaves well enough, I will probably register it as Jerry Swann, for my dad.
I promised him any iris named for him would be appropriately masculine.  He's 90
now, so I want to do it while he's still young enough to enjoy it.
