Bearded Irises

As I’ve been looking over some of the photos I haven’t posted to my blog, I realized that there are several bearded iris photos that you may not have seen. I’ve photographed several wonderful varieties of bearded irises in recent years – they are one of my favorite spring flowers.

According to several websites, bearded irises are fairly easy to grow. They prefer full sun and well-drained soil. With the wide variety of bearded irises available, you can find them in almost every color of the rainbow. The one color that seems to elude iris breeders is a true red bearded iris.
