Blatant Iris

(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.  Clicking a second time will make it full-sized.)

We don't normally expect to have an iris blooming in November, but we've had several bloom this November.  I got this photo of our Blatant iris last Friday.

I really don't know how you pulled that off. I do know they have reblooming iris but your's must be a freak of nature with the weather.

That is soooo gorgeous - - - and as you said, unusual for November. It is prettier color than we have seen with leaves over here this year. I think Chattanooga got a nicer display though. Wish I had driven just a few miles down the road to get some pics.
