The bees have really been buzzing about today. As you can see, there is lots of pollen on the petals of the flower from the disturbance of this recent visitor.
But these iris, with their gaudy clothes have no problem showing off their reproduction bits and working hard to bring in the pollinators.
This one is a bit shyer with the sexy bits more hidden among the petal folds. If the iris above is compared to a calendar girl from a 1950's auto shop, this one is more like a movie poster from the '40's with the leading lady in her finest gown coming down the stairs to greet her leading man.
I'm not at all sure how to characterize this one other than impressive.
