My first year with this one. I love it and it will look even better as it fills out this Dan Barton pot too.

That is lovely E. I like very much the pot too. What mix do you generally use or do you vary plant by plant? Is this one you picked up at a general nursery already growing or did you start off with the bulb in that pot?
Cheers

Thanks Mike, I use whatever is at hand to be honest, similar mix to the trees with maybe slightly finer mix. I got this in a swap with Robert Porch last year but this is the first I’ve had it for flowering. I split the original into 3 and still have two after giving one to a mate. Hoping they bulk up this year 🙂

Thanks E. Right, I’m off out on the patio; sun is beaming down, very warm, hardly a breeze; wonderful. I shall look out for one of the dwarf varieties for next year.

I seems to be an iris gracilipes, a japanese dwarf iris. Very beautifull in the lovely barton pot 😉
