I thought this one was the same rust colored bearded iris I had shown on the first post. But obviously it is different, there's more yellow than the following one.

This is the one I included with the others. It's not the same, is it? Darn I wish I had kept track of what I purchased, but there also were so many passalongs that it wouldn't have helped my record keeping anyway.
So now I'm pretty sure that's all of them. Maybe a good iris book and some detective work is in order.
By the way, I had to choose another Burpee Clog winner as my third pick. My husband called out a number and it turned out to be Rose from Prairie Rose's Garden. Rose entered shortly before the deadline. She was number 162 out of 163. Congratulations, Rose. It's a lesson for us all. It's never too late. There were many people that continued to enter after the deadline. I posted their comments but did not include them in the drawing. Rose, contact me with your shoe size, choice of color and mailing address.
I can't wait to tell you what Burpee has in store for us next. I'm very excited and I'm sure you will be too, so stay in touch.

Great picture : )
That is one gorgeous iris! Mine have all faded away now...sigh.
Sorry to hear about all your rain; you must be getting what we had last week. I hope you have sunny days soon.
Thanks to your husband for drawing my name for the Burpee clogs! I'm so excited--I never win anything. I just e-mailed you with my info. My excuse for being so late is that there was a week when I was busy with other things and didn't get much blogging time. I remember finally checking your posts and discovered I still had two hours to comment--that's serendipity!
I love that beautiful apricot color -- "rust" seems so...ordinary. :) Lovely!

Hi
I have succumbed and responded to a tag left on my blog by the lovely Karen at Artists Garden. However I have had to now pass the tag on to six bloggers and I have included you. http://patientgardener.wordpress.com/2008/06/12/tagged-by-artists-garden/
Hope you feel like playing along
Oh that Iris (both of them) are such a lovely color.
I have finally posted my meme you tagged me for. Thanks for including me. :)
