Purple/Blue Iris

Purple/Blue Iris

This is one of the last flowers from my Iris this year.
i have a couple of colors now, and am very pleased to have the Purple/Blue one flowering.
i cannot wait for this one to divide so i can start spreading it around the garden.’
Taken on my Sony A200 dslr.. manuel mode. very close up..
