I have had this one water iris for at least six years. I have moved it from one pond to the other. It has grown bigger and bigger but never bloomed. Last
year I bought this small potted water iris. Finally this week a bloom opened up
on the one year old iris. And now looking closely I see numerous buds sprouting
out from the base of this huge water iris. Do water iris's normally take six
years to bloom? I am confused. Also the buds on the huge iris are coming out
sideways on long stalks looking very like gladiola buds. I have no idea of the variety of either of these. The newer one I got at a plant swap and the older
one I can no longer remember it's name. But it cost me a lot of money.
