We have been having extreme rain. It began yesterday and is supposed to continue for most of the day today and then continue intermittently for the next couple days. I can already hear people groaning because it is not supposed to clear until Tuesday. It will be a less than ideal weekend, and a long one at that. I am not certain I will get out to take pictures of the iris today and there is at least one new one open. I can see it from inside the house; right now I do not plan to go out in the rain to see if there are any others.
BUT - - -
I did not post the pictures I took yesterday. So here they are.

| Black Swan |
Here is Black Swan. I think that perhaps I ought to post it together with Old Black Magic so you can compare them. They are both very dark purple.
 |
| Lemon Lyric |
|
Should I post a picture of Lemon Lyric with a picture of Cream Taffeta? They are very much alike too.
 |
| Ming Dynasty |
Ming Dynasty is originally from the Gopher Garden and so is Spartan.
This particular flower does not show them but the falls frequently have garnet flecks so it looks like a maroon and gold flower.

| Siberian Iris: Auguary | |
|
|
 |
| Siberian Iris Group: Lavender Bounty |

And finally, the little viola plant. The first two flowers have faded but there are still a lot open.
