Went to a dinner last evening at the home of the friend that gave me the flag (iris) rhizomes. Hers are blooming ahead of mine, so I took some photos to show you.
It's a bearded iris named Presby's Crown Jewel.
Happy Easter!

UPDATE Iris 04-19-2017
Took my early morning coffee out on the patio to watch the sun peek over the Sierras,
and the wait has ended,
Presby's Crown Jewel is blooming...

Very pretty, I hope yours works out every bit as well.

DeleteMy friend and I live within a couple of miles of each other, but my flags are a week or so away from full bloom.
Glad to hear your are feeling better.
I love Iris, they're hearty and they do speak to Easter and new birth. Happy Easter.

I love irises. We had the wild ones we called flags covering the hills on the farm where I grew up. Happy Easter.

Yay to daffies bloom'n!
I love Iris! That is a pretty one. Have you ever been to see the Iris blooming at Schreiners gardens in Salem, Oregon? I guess it is pretty awesome. I always wanted to go but never have.
