Kwekerij de Schullhorn's display at the Lentetuin ("Spring Garden" in Dutch) flower show in Breezand, The Netherlands (about an hour north of Amsterdam) which ran from Feb 28 thru Mar 4th.  The display included 5 of my Reticulata Iris:  White Caucasus, Spot On, Scent•sational, 98-NP-4, and 01-IV-1.

The three other Retics are some of my hybrids being tested in Holland.

Here are my iris reticulata x sea green. Flowering at least 3-4 weeks later than usual because of our very cold late winter and early spring. They are still in full bloom as I write. It is not easy however to get their true greenish turquoise colour to come out well and true to nature in a photograph....

At last the Retics are starting in earnest here in Toronto, Canada

05-EN-1 was in bud at the end of January after two significant freeze thaw cycles.  I had it's 3 buds covered with an upside down dishpan.  The first photo shows the snow on March 13th.  The 2nd phot shows one of the 05-EN-1 flowers on March 25

05-FT-2 was the first new hybrid blooming for the first time

Amazing to see buds coming up through the snow

Two crackers there Alan, very nice.  And this just the start.

Here the snowdrops are appearing again after last week's snowfall.  Hopefully the mild weekend will start the season off.

A few more new Retics that are blooming for the first time.

April 1st was cold and windy, but I took advantage of it to get caught up with cataloging photos and updating my records
