Tetraploid. A photograph can't capture the exceptional size and clarity of these brilliant violet-blue flaring flowers which show only the gold tip of the signal visible. A slight silver edge picotees the bloom. Continues to flower very late into the Siberian season.

Light yellow standards and deeper yellow falls form a beautiful display in early to midseason. Based on our observations, this is one of the earliest of the Siberian Iris to bloom.

Light blue veined standards perch above light blue falls heavily veined and dappled with dark blue and violet. A yellow signal and pearly, pale blue style arms complete the look of these attractive blooms. (Schafer/Sacks 06)

Poem of Ecstasy Iris has pinky peach standards atop lavender-blue falls.
My first Iris bloom of 2022 is Iris reticulata 'Pixie', a beautiful deep blue cultivar with sparks of white and gold.
This dwarf bulbous species is native to Anatolia, the Caucasus, and northern Iran and Iraq.

Now a slew of Dwarf Irises are blooming in my garden. Several cultivars of Iris reticulata. 'Pixie' is now joined with several more blue forms 'Alida', 'Armenian Form', & 'Rhapsody', as well as the distinctively purple Iris reticulata 'J.S. Dijt' (below).
Also, the remarkably unique Iris x 'Katherine Hodgkin' (photo below), a primary hybrid of Iris winogradowii X Iris histrioides.

Another type of bulbous Iris that does very well in my garden are Dutch Iris (Iris x hollandica cvs.).
Despite the Latin name, Iris x hollandica is not a natural hybrid, nor is it native to the Netherlands. Rather, it is a cross between several different species of Iris subgenus Xiphium, native to southwestern Europe and northwestern Africa, most notably Spanish Iris (Iris xiphium) and Tangiers Iris (Iris tingitana). Dutch Iris cultivars ar enow available in wide array of colours and patterns. They are widely grown, both as garden ornamentals and as cut flowers for the florist trade. Being descended from species native to Mediterranean climates, Dutch Iris go dormant in late Spring after blooming. During Summer, the dormant, underground bulbs should be watered as little as possible, though they do tolerate occasional light irrigation in my garden.
