Iris 'Electric Avenue'

This 'tuber,' that I bought at Chateau de Vullierens was cut and prepared for replanting when I found it. Back home, it began to develop with fervor, small bright green leaves popping up everywhere. Not even in its growing season it had such 'lust for living' that even lack of soil and water could not stop it from developing, the dried out leaves still standing at the top. What a magnificent mini sculpture!
