Iris reticulata
In one of the front flowerbeds, we have a small clump of Iris Reticulata. It is a fairly young clump, so at this point the flowering display is small. But even with just four blooms this year, its beautiful blue-purple petals make a radiant and bold statement in the mid-winter garden. A wonderful burst of color just when we need it most.

Dwarf Bearded Iris
Our patch of dwarf bearded iris have started blooming. Each Spring they are some of the first plants in the flowerbed to bloom and then sadly, they are among the first plants to be finished for the year. With their bloom-time so brief, it is extra important to enjoy them while they are at their peak. Above, "Devoted".
Pictured above "Giggle Fit". We have the fewest of these plants. Below "Bourgeois", our most prolific dwarf iris.
