Here are some junos from Otto's garden today. Iris zenaidae then a hybrid from Janis Ruksans, called 'Skyline.'

Lovely junos Otto.
By the way I heard about the cottage garden club visiting you recently when I had dinner with Sue and Mike Perkins.

Howdy All,

Here's a couple of pics I took of some of the Junos in Otto's garden when I was there.    So lovely to see them all in person..... the are such striking iris!!  8)


I also have Iris graberiana 'White Falls' that opened for me here today (my first Juno to flower, ever) but it wasn't open enough to photograph, and I doubt I'll get to see it fully open in good enough light to photograph it this week as I'll be at work until late afternoon each day.  ::)

David,

Sounds like you're in pain.  Should I remove the photos then? ;)

Pat,

Do you reckon you could spare a few seeds to send my way?  I'm only starting into Junos as yet, but have magnifica alba growing happily along from seed so I am doing something right!  ;)
