OMG...I was going to post a pic of these to find out what they are. I got them last year from a lady who was making divisions in her gardens...she sets up a stand out near the road and has them all potted up for $1. She didn't remember what these were. Hope we get an answer

I believe these are Dutch Irises. I don't know the name of the variety.

it looks like a siberian iris to me. also known as a beardless iris. it's a really pretty blue. I like it. the name caesar's brother comes to mind, but, I'm not sure if that's it or not.

I agree with aggiegrad...siberian iris.
