Last night I took my camera along when my husband and I took our evening walk, because I really wanted to get a picture of this striking purple iris I'd seen the night before. I thought it was beautiful. Unfortunately, when I went to take the picture there was no media card in my camera. So I made sure the card was in there tonight as we headed out. I don't think I've ever seen one like this before. And I'm not even a fan of irises normally, but maybe this one found a soft spot in my heart because it's purple. Georgeous, isn't it!

Yes it is, somehow it does not look like an iris.Almost tropical looking, but really, really georgeous. :goodjob: :heartbeat:Mom
Those are very lovely. I think I'm only a fan of irises because of the memories of them in our garden when I was growing up, and in my grandparent's gardens as well... I was always partial to the purple ones, myself. Those are lovely, striped like that. I've never seen any that were striped, before.
I am not a fan of iris either.
These I like.
I have loads of purpley blue ones my hubby brought home from a family reunion about 5 years ago. They spread like mad, great to give away to friends.
My hubby's grandpa started the Illinois Farmer Boys which eventually turned into 4-H.
The whole idea was to improve farming and keep kids on the farm...
Anyway, yeah, these iris are quite pretty.
Wow...I am becoming a fan of iris' as I have a variety in my new world of flowers!
Very unusual, and very lovely. :sunny:
That first one looks like it was painted! Very beautiful.
Beautiful color

That is the most beautiful iris! Of course I am a fan of such.
Thanks for the F11 tip too. Didn't know that one.
