An excellent choice!
That is a pretty flower, Chris. I like the Iris and we always called them "flags" but I have no idea why. I can guess that it has something to do with what used to be called, "Decoration" day and is now called, "Memorial" day. People took a lot of "flags" and "peonies" to the graveyards in Mason canning jars -- to decorate the graves.
Pretty color, reminds me of that delicate flower they call the Gov of Alaska, LOL.
Hello, Chris! Lovely photos, as always.
I've started the "Thanksgiving Comes First" train rolling again. If you'd like to add your voice to the fray again, it would surely be appreciated.

It's beautiful, Chris, and beautifully photographed.

i love iris, but my favorite variety is what I call Dutch Iris, those little blue ones with the yellow throats.
