SV: Iris vartanii bloom

 

Hi Sean

Iris vartanii is also the first in flower here at my place – 27th January is its record – it is over the ground right now and I can just see the bud. We have just finished a very long period with hard frost and 20cm of snow. We + temperatures right now and the snow is melting together with the rain there is falling.

 

Med venlig hilsen / Kind regards

This is a new early record for irises for me (any plant, actually). It's been in the mid-50s F since yesterday, after below-zero temps the last week or so. Flowers should not bloom in Michigan in January!
