Here is one I am calling Iris persica that I grew

What a wonderful plant. The dark background makes it look stunning. 8)

This is what i saw today on the main road  from Haifa to Tel-Aviv,
there are thousands of Iris palaestina on both sides of the road, it will last for about two more weeks.

 Ha, Ha!  :D  Well, in the UK we do talk about  "the trip to work this morning"...  so  it can still apply! It was a really good trip for me, that's for sure!
