Iris Parade - #51 - Brilliant Idea. Well, this has been a banner year even with all of the rain, hail and cold. It looks like she is at the end of this year's party. Thank you for all your wonderful comments about these flowers that bring me such joy. #irises #irisparade #schreinersiris

Iris Parade: #49 Enthralled. I purchased her from Brecks in 2023 and she didn't bloom. Good to see her. This is definitely a banner year for my parade. There are still a couple that may still bloom. #irises #irisparade

Iris Parade #46 Concord Crush - Unlike the others, she is a Siberian Iris (not a bearded iris). They like to bring up the rear of this event.

Iris Parade #42 Discovered Treasure. This is one I got free with my order in 2022. She bloomed in 2022 but skipped 2023. Now she's back but with a little hail damage. #Iries #irisparade #schreineriris

Iris Parade #14 Dawn Eternal: This is her first year in the parade, as I bought and planted her last year. It also looks like her Falls (petals that are on the bottom of the flower) got some of the hail damage. She's a stunner, imho! #irises #irisparade #schreineriris

Iris Parade - #40 Paul Black Unfortunately, the hail storm also damaged some of the buds. Here is the one from this morning and next to it is last year's to give you an idea of how he is suppose to look. I'm hoping some of the remaining buds aren't damaged. #irises #irisparade

Iris Parade #39 light purple and white, taken yesterday before the storm. This one is an older one that was here in this side bed. I've not seen her for several years.

Iris Parade #38 Purple Unknown. This was labeled in 2022 as Let Evening Come which is a light iris. When it bloomed in 2023, this is what I got. It didn't bloom last year but is back. #irises #irisparade

Iris Parade #34 Black Magic Woman and #35 Champagne Elegance. I just bought #35 a couple weeks ago at Colonial. She wasn't blooming yet so thought I'd have to wait until next year. So glad she decided she'd show up for us. #irises #irisparade
