Re: Spuria?


 

ï

How many times have we heard "never assume".  When I saw the 3rd of 3 bloom stalks open from afar the other day, I assumed it was the same as the 1st spuria picture I took, and the 2nd stalk as well.  >From afar, it does look like it. 
 
I was assessing this latest rain and wind storm damage a few minutes ago, and went over to stake a bearded iris that had fallen over.  While I was there, I picked up the 3rd stem to flower, as it was already bent over from that creature that ran through the entire clump. 
 
I'm sure my jaw dropped when I saw the faint colour on this one.  The flower is almost finished, but I'll try for a better picture when the next bud opens.
