High Point (slightly deformed from the freeze, but still pretty):

A mystery iris . . . any ideas?
And finally, for those who liked Blushing Rose, I want to report that she is still pumping out blooms. She's young, but prolific!

Alisande, your yard looks beautiful. I love your rock wall with the hostas and ferns behind Blushing Rose. Thanks for posting the photos.

| Could your noid be Yakina Blue? Does it have some brown veins high on the hafts? Does the beard have some yellow deep in the throat? If so it's a possibility. |

| I don't think so, Iris_Gal. I *wish* I had kept a copy of that iris order! That is, I did keep a copy, so I *wish* I could find it! :-) Thanks for trying. Thanks, Renee. The rock wall is actually our old stone ice house. The Blushing Rose iris is planted on a stone terrace across from it. Here's a view of the corner of the ice house; you can see how thick the walls are. Ice was cut from a pond (before my time!) and stored in there to feed the family's "ice box." Sorry to say this rose (Robusta) didn't survive the winter. I think last year's severe catepillar damage might have had something to do with it.

Very pretty! I like that old ice house. It gives the garden character. Too bad about the rose.
