    Oh, oh, oh, will you look at all those beauties! :D I especially like no. 2, and no. 4, and that one *pointing*, and those Sibirians are awesome too. I give in, it's impossible to pick a favourite.

    I think I need to visit Lithuania in the near future!

    Those are absolutely gorgeous! I don't think I can pick a favorite. Your yard must be so colorful in the spring...Tulips, Iris, and Gladiolas. What else do you have? If you have a Peony collection I would LOVE to see photos of that!

    And the no 4 - old variety 'JET FIRE'

    I love all the iris...I do want to get maybe just one red one or pink. I have mostly purple and white. Beautiful flowers. I had some blooming late in the fall...they were close to the house and I have no idea why they bloomed so late here.

    cherry8,
    You have irises - rebloomers? Those varieties blooms twice in the year: on late spring and on the august-september?

    Vivasvat....My rebloomers are white. But the ones by the house I had just moved last fall and I had so many and I didn't want to throw them away so I just plunked them everywhere. They did not bloom in the spring, I figured they wouldn't bloom because they hadn't been there that long...and they surprised me and bloomed in the fall. I do have just a couple that rebloom (white) but I left most of them (by mistake) at the other house I lived at. I think I bought them through Spring Hills.
