Maiden bloom on my Japanese Iris

本帖于 2024-06-19 18:15:06 时间, 由普通用户 天边一片白云 编辑

When I visited the Tera Greenhouse in our city in the fall of last year, I was immediately  attracted by the beauty of the flower in the name tag. 

 The clean, crisp white flowers with a violet ruffle edge, as well as a yellow cross  in the middle, gives a soft yet spectacular effect. No wonder it has a pretty name: Dinner Plate Tiramisu Jananess Iris.

I bought it and planted it in our front yard after right going home. This spring, I was waiting eagerly for it to bloom. But I didn't see any bud showing up even when other iris finished blooming. I thought maybe I planted it too deep. I was thinking I might need to re-plant it this fall.

To my surprise and excitement, I saw three buds at the beginning of June. After searching on internet, I learned that Jananess Irises normally blooms later than other Irises, in early to midsummer.

Yesterday ( June 18):

This morning before I went to office ( June 19):

This evening after I came home ( June 19):

Pick up  two and put in a glass bottle:

Thank you.

Enjoy the Summer!
