Spring Downunder - Iris Time

Some photos of various iris in my garden; one Louisiana iris in the pond and 2 different coloured bearded iris in pots close by.

They are beautiful, OMG! You really know how to take care of a garden.

Hi Pat - yes, the garden is in maximum care/maximum production mode right now, colour everywhere. Trouble with irises is that they only flower for a couple days at most, so we get a week overall from the pot of 4 or 5 plants as they progressively open up. Whereas my native orchids (dendrobiums) below have been in flower for four weeks now.
