Please forgive, Bill, but we northerners (this northerner, anyway) suffer 
from a seasonal demensia known as "Cabin Fever" that inhibits any and all 
empathy - compassionate or otherwise - for anyone else on the planet who 
has made it past winter and into spring before we do.  I am sorry your 
iris season has progressed past peak, and I do hope you have rebloom to 
look forward to later this season.  At the moment, however, I am far more 
focused on the almost uncontrollable urge to take a blow torch to every 
frozen clod of clay and late season snowflake I encounter.  My current 
dreams are hardly of anticipated beauty. These deer are lucky I don't 
have a truly murderous bone in my body.  ;-)

Since it's starting to look like the beginning and end of bloom season 
may be one and the same in my garden this year, I will mention last 
season's final entries.  These were, however, first year plants, so their 
seasonal timing might not have been at all typical. From latest *first* 
open bloom - 

TRIPLE WHAMMY 6/24
YAQUINA BLUE 6/24 (very stunted, deformed stalk with a single viable bud)
BAYBERRY CANDLE 6/23 (but continued blooming after TW and YB were done)
AZTEC TREASURE 6/22
MOON JOURNEY 6/21
LAURIE 6/20
SANDY ROSE 6/20
SKATING PARTY 6/20
STARSTRUCK 6/20
SWEET ALEDA 6/20

Hope that helps,

Laurie
