I grouping of 25 Iris danfordiae bulbs by my front door burst into full
bloom this last week. It's absolutely wonderful! Such *bright* yellow color
in the midst of a landscape that is otherwise still uniformly grey and dull
brown. The reticulatas should be starting soon.
Anyone who has never grown the miniature bulbous irises is really missing
out on a great delight. They are inexpensive, incredibly early to bloom,
and lovely.
Happy irising, Tom.
