Luc, they need a dry summer rest! To wet/humid during summer, no flowers next year. I keep my pots dry during summer in frames, plunged in sand; there is always a little moisture from beneath.
Another one from a few years ago, but still good growing: Iris rosenbachiana 'Tovil Dara'

One day not in this forum and so many great new pictures! :o
Alex thanks for showing your I. narbutii - to see mine first time in flower I will have to wait some more years.
Gerhard the colour of this Iris aucheri is breathtaking and Hendriks beautiful collection of Iris rosenbachianas are superb.

Anthony, the picture is 2 years old; I think it is Barlia robertianum or Himantoglossum.

Here also Iris willmottiana came in flower (in the open), it is a very beautiful species, in relation to the dwarf species it is larger and more leafy.

Ah, so you are using what we would call a "naturalistic" frame..... are the bulbs are growing  directly in the substrate or plunged in pots?
