Iris in September

I planted three Iris last fall. This spring and early summer I kept waiting for them to bloom, but nothing ever happened. I had given up hope and was going to dig them up when suddenly a flower stalk appeared. They bloomed the day after my birthday. I love Iris, the scent reminds me of my father and grandmother. I have had about eight blooms so far off this plant with a few more to come.

Beautiful. Ours usually come in June too. Fun surprise though.
