Thanks for visiting the "Tonya, with the flowers." organic gardening channel. In the garden, I will answer some of the most common "gardening for beginners" type questions I get, including growing flowers from seed. Growing greens, growing flowers, and planting beautiful organic food is something I'm really passionate about. Thank you for joining me as I learn to grow flowers, cut flowers, vegetables, and much more. 'Tonya, with the flowers.' YouTube channel and related media are for entertainment purposes only.
Many ornamental flowers and cut flowers are TOXIC. ALWAYS do your own research and take responsibility for the plants that you introduce around your kids, pets, and everyone else. Use common sense when handling plant materials: wear gloves, always wash hands, avoid contact with face, etc. NEVER consume any plant which has not been positively identified with complete certainty to be safe and edible. Before planting anything, research to determine whether specific flowers are considered invasive where you live or if there are laws that apply to their planting in your area.

okay so I'll be the first to admit I
initially did not want to make this
video because I am so ashamed of my
weeds and of this bed this is the first
year for this Iris bed I did my best to
keep the weeds out but the onion grass
in the vet is just Relentless here in
this yard but I wanted to show you
anyway because this is a real Channel
this is a real Garden I'm going to be
honest about how weedy it is and
everything plus I figured um like I said
this is the first bloom for a lot of
these bearded irises and a lot of people
might be interested to see what the
different varieties look like the first
is champagne Elegance this one was a
really pretty one really lovely tones of
that peachy color I like on the Falls
which are the lower petals and I believe
the upper petals are called the
standards like you know standing up and
I think that little bit the little fuzzy
bit I think that's technically the beard
for whatever reason I like to call it
the tongue just kind of as a you know
just letting you know nomenclature is
that right I don't know anyway that one
was really nice this one bloomed
profusely from uh I just planted these
last summer so very pleased with that
the next one um that we see here in the
yard that bloom these are blooming in
order of the bloom that I'm showing is a
pinka can which cute name right and even
cuter flower you can tell it's just this
lovely shade of just peachy pink color
um those little tongues in there I think
they are a dark pink color which
contrasts nicely with the overall color
of the flower um I can see this one
would definitely be pretty arranged in
some kind of vaseer thing um vase life
on these obviously isn't that great I'm
assuming if I could pick them a little
bit early I could get more out of them
but anacon love is next it's a very
pretty one I got this one because I like
the unique coloration on those bottom
petals that kind of streaky like crazy
type of look that seems to fit my
personal
very well um I mean let's just be honest
here it's kind of halfhazard and all
over the place next we have another
beautiful one this one is
called Cafe Blue Cafe Blue is a lovely
shade of just kind of light lavender
blue color over the last few years I
have totally just fallen in love with
this blue lavender shade in the garden
for whatever reason I'd never tried it
before I thought maybe I didn't like
lavenders and blues but this one is
absolutely gorgeous and mixed with some
of those other peachy pink tones I think
it does something really special here in
the yard in terms of creating a contrast
which is very nice as well the next
variety I wanted to show you is called
Parisian Dawn o la la how fancy and this
is a gorgeous one uh you can tell those
stand standard stands I forgot what
they're called already they that peachy
pink color and the bottom Falls are just
a beautiful soft pastel purple and they
have that edging around each side with
the dark orange tongue which I think
really sets it off and looks nice I
think these really look nice with the
blues and the different kind of peaches
and pinks and things in the yard um that
the other varieties that I grew kind of
offer and I love how ruly these are too
very nice peach jam is the next one that
blew and peach jam I believe is a
reblooming iris uh this one was quite a
bit shorter than all the other varieties
here in the yard so I'm not really too
happy about that
but I do love the kind of sporadic color
that's kind of all over the place and
doesn't make sense these are um I think
I might replant these and put them
somewhere where they can just be short
and not be overrun by the others Society
page was another gorgeous one that
bloomed for the first time this year
this is just a gorgeous shade of just
peach pink Peach um as you can see the
little beards or tongues in there are a
bright kind of orangey color that gives
a nice contrast and kind of makes them
just reflect sunlight a little better it
seems so that they're really just
vibrant and out there and standing out
in the garden um I would really like to
have a lot more of these these are very
pretty uh unfortunately I don't think
they were available when I went to order
this year but it's on my list to order
some more of these cuz they're very very
pretty I just have that soft spot for
pastel pink I don't know what it is
brilliant idea is the next one that
began blooming and it's pretty um but
it's not what I ordered I did not order
this I mean you can see the theme of
kind of pastel and Peach and all that
that I was kind of following when making
an order and I definitely did not order
this one but you know what it's here
it's a nice surprise so I thought I'd
show you I'll probably dig this one up
and put it somewhere else so that it's
not kind of clashing with the color
palette that I have in this big Iris bed
it's very nice blue little ruffley
around the blue I mean I have no
complaints flowers are beautiful
but not what I had intended
unfortunately the next variety we have
is one called balini and as the name
would you know kind of imply you can
expect kind of peachy pinky tones very
very nice H little bit of kind of
purpley edging I like that kind of
subtle difference adding just a little
bit a little pop of something unexpected
there so that one was really pretty I
would like to get some more of these
these bloomed profusely they just one
bloom after the other it was excellent
very happy with that and they seem to
hold up really well in the garden even
when it rained which is another
annoyance that I have with bearded
irises um that they fade so quickly um
Augustine was another favorite here in
my yard it again is a peachy pink color
uh just I have a soft spot for it I
can't help it and just drawn immediately
to peachy pink colors there's really
nothing I can do I'm sorry but I'm not
sorry I love them so much in keeping
Trend with the same kind of color
palette we have Autumn reasing or I
guess that's how you say it I don't even
know it's more of a true orangey color
but it's not a harsh Orange it's like a
soft like hey I'm Orange it's cool but
I'm not here to take attention from
everybody else I like it a lot um also
had uh I think polite applause was
another one that was kind of surprising
it was a little bit different than I
expected you can see there's those light
purple tones on the Falls uh but I was
expecting more of a pink in the upper p
um definitely more of a white but very
pretty nonetheless I'm not sure I would
actively seek out more of those but I do
like them and they do blend in well
padded shoulders was another gorgeous
variety that we had here this was
somewhat similar to Champagne Elegance
um in the coloration but you can see the
two kind of streaks of color down the
side I'm not sure I'm you know
explaining that well probably not um I
don't think I'd plant this one again uh
last but not least I wanted to show you
dauntless this is actually one that was
growing in my yard when I came when I
moved so as much as I can figure this
was introduced in 1929 it is an heirloom
variety and it is still growing in the
yard of the house that I purchased so
I'm going to dig these up this year and
divide them and give them their own
place to live and I think it'll be
absolutely gorgeous that's really about
it for this video I know it was a quick
one and I know there was a lot lot of
weeds and I know the you know the
photography wasn't that great um but I
did want to share it um you know H just
got to keep on moving sometimes things
don't go exactly according to plan as
always thank you so much for watching it
means so much for me like seriously I
can't do it without you I appreciate you
guys I know I just we have this like a
core group of of people who watch his
videos and I'm so thankful I hope the
weather is gorgeous wherever you are you
