    I have a pretty green froggie hanging out on my "red" Louisiana iris:

    I ordered the iris as red 3 years ago, but it is yellow, pretty none the less:

    Such a beautiful frog, he can't be very big? Love your Iris! I've got a blue one that turned out to be brownish orange. I don't care much as long as they're pretty.

    Your little frog makes our British ones look totally boring in colour compared to him Sharon. He's a real 'emerald' and I love the creamy stripe!! Such a pity about the iris as red ones are really lovely but, hey, yellow is definately OK in my book!! :stew1:

    That's a wonderful photo Sharon. I have a friend who is very afraid of frogs so I better make sure she doesn't happen across this page :)
