Yes it is Meanie , I have about 10 different named ones ,I find it difficut to tell some of them apart , I have to keep all the name tags to compare them with when they are in flower ....

Meanie I have just pulled all my labels out for the iris's and have 2 labels for one called Joyce the picture on one label looks purple and on the other label a lovely blue how will I know it when it's in flower ???? I find this happens a lot with the colouring on packets !

Amy - call me anal, but I keep a photo file for every plant that I have to avoid confusion.

I do take a photo once they come into flower Meanie , but I had some new ones last year ,they are all planted in an area of lawn and unless they come up in the same colours as shown on the packet the chances are I wouldn't know which is which , Please don't tell me to stick labels in the lawn where they are planted because my OH would soon sling them when he mowed the lawn LOL...
