IRIS Spring! Midwest Gardening 2026

We've been adding Iris almost every year. I moved and split a bunch around last year, and a friend gave me a huge bucket of excellent corms. So whew, do we have Iris!

We have so many now...and the later ones haven't started to bloom yet.

I love the taller structure of Iris, great backdrop for the rest of the year. The yellow is soft and dreamy against the brick and greens.

Cooler temps are holding  the blooms  for a few days. The stems are full of buds, multiple blooms. Color me a Happy Gardener!

Only had a few whites, but just like a wedding gown...gorgeous!

Lavender Clematis in the background!

I'm partial to blues, but these are scrumptious!

These are planted last year and really filled in the redone square planter in the back yard. I had to tie these up last weekend with the winds. But, I cut the drooped ones and bring them in the house.

I do love the Spikey leaves and will be using them in summer arrangements!
