final iris flower [2 Attachments]


 

The group flower photo is the earliest photo of this I. lactea. It was
taken June 21. There were several dozen flowers open on the clump at
that time.

The single flower photo was taken a couple days ago but the flower was
still open and close to the same in appearance yesterday afternoon.

This I. lactea bloomed from mid-June through the end of July. I've never
grown a mature clump of I. lactea before, so maybe a 6 week period of
bloom is normal for this species?
