Re: Spring in Kansas City

Hi Jim. Is it your sending or my receiving that's botched up here Your whole message goes across two pages width and a little grey background rectangle obscures most of the first half saying         "visit your group        Sponsored links     Iris        Iris plants        purple iris         audi north america        Iris bulb."
        Nothing blooming yet here except snowdrops! I had an Iris magnifica for several years, but lost it when the temp dropped to 8 F on April 8. I've tried more since but they didn't come up at all. I'm expecting T. nivale and H. niger as soon as the snow is all gone. Lots of little bulb noses!        Joan Cooper

Subject: [iris-species] Spring in Kansas City

The reticulata flowers are only a memory now, but spring Marches on!  Pun intended!


Iris 'Sindpers' has just finished. It was glorious this year, thanks to the cool weather it was a darker blue then usual. A real knockout! There were seven flowers open at once on what was, only a few years ago, one small bulb.

Iris vicaria opened it's first bloom today, it must have enjoyed the heavy rain we had overnight. 

The first Iris magnifica will open Friday or Saturday depending on how much sunshine we have. It has been self sowing for several years and the largest seedling is almost mature enough to flower, what fun!

So, what's blooming in your neck of the woods?
