Nice looking iris. Strong and clean and masculine. Hope it reblooms. It would be very distinct.

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.
