I adore Irises and you have such gorgeous ones. Do you have the names for them? 3 and 4 are quite unfamiliar to me. I love them.

Hi, Chloris. Thanks for the kind words. I don’t have names for all of them, but #3 is Iris tectorum and #4 is Iris cristata. I have updated the photos with captions indicating their names–I should have thought to do so before I posted.

And 5. That’s unusual too. These are all beautiful.

Hi, Susie. Thanks! I don’t know the name of #5 but I’ll ask the friend who gave it to me. It’s tiny–only six to eight inches tall or so.
