Celeste,
Absolutely stunning flowers...all of them! Thanks so much! I've always thought Bayses's Purple was interesting, and have never seen Japanese iris in real life. Beautiful. My 2 Intrigues rarely bloom, and so far neither does Neptune (year 2-3, own root). Heirloom does, but it's the first to get BS really badly. :0( Wm. Shakespeare 2000 and Falstaff (close to purple) bloom well though.
I would LOVE some other nice purples for the vase.

Oh my goodness! That was quite a show. Wow. I scarcely know where to begin with those but I just love that Night Owl. Not only do I love the color on those blooms but look at the foliage. It just shines.

Thank you very much for those Celeste. So pretty.

This is fantastic! I'm a huge purple fan, especially the deep aubergines, magentas and plums. Do you happen to know the name of the clematis you have? And could we have an update on how your Midnight Blue & Night Owl are doing? Thanks!!
