<< I am now beyond delight to report that the second beardless species to
bloom is from that rare, in the U.S. at least, Series Chinenses. Today,
quite by accident, I discovered my clump of the wee Iris minutoaurea filled
with tiny, exquisite flowers of bright yellow. This is the third time I have
grown Iris minutoaurea, but the first time I have ever seen it in bloom >>
I am pea green with envy. Mine has never bloomed although I have had it four
years and it increases and seems content otherwise. I have come to the
conclusion it needs more sun than it is getting in the place I have it.
Perhaps it has also needed to settle in. I had also assumed it would boom a
bit later in the season.
