Some of the early blooming daylilies perform with the late blooming irises. I
particularly like bright yaller (yellow for non-Southerners) daylilies with
the late blooming blacks, mauves, and blues and purples. Some verbena blooms
well through the iris season. Pinstamen (sp?) does well too. Dianthus does
the whole iris bloom season with the contrast in form and size creating
drama. Roses if you can stand the work. Herbal sage fits nice with bloom as
does oregano foliage. Creeping and native phlox (grand compatible fragrance).
Sweet William. Dandelions! Love that yaller and absolutely bullet proof.
Tradascanthia (spider wort or widows tears if you prefer) in white blue and
mauves. Mostly lazy and don't like to garden so prefer perennials. Make
exception for the best annual of all here, poppies! A great excuse not to
weed, ask nothing of you and eliminate the need but not the craving for a
true red iris.
Smiles to you,
