Gorgeous!

I have never been a fan of the bearded variety, but I sure have come to love some of the other iris clan. That is one I will be ont he look out for - I got my first cristata to bloom this spring and it is a beauty!

Thanks for enabling!

It's beautiful Paul! I opened the pic and then zoomed in on it and I could see the detail just fine.

Thanks, Pat. I'm not the best photographer.

I'm struggling to keep my christatas alive long enough for them to establish. Only one has ever bloomed so far, a small white. This one is gorgeous, and so nice to see the variety. I'd only read of it before.

That looks about like the plant I was asking about earlier.
