After the crocuses, the
Iris reticulatas are the next flower to bloom. These are great little flowers that get better every year. We planted the bulbs about 5 years ago and now we have several sizable colonies growing in the front yard.
This sky blue variety,
Iris reticulata 'Harmony', is starting to collect snow flakes during the ides of March. It doesn't mind the snow at all.
Lisette doesn't mind the late winter snowfall either.
These little gems were completely covered a deep blanket of snow, but as soon as it melts they look as good as ever.
I believe this purple clump is the most representative of the species, but they are several
varieties, including white ones. They bloom for about 3 weeks and they definitely get me excited for spring!
