About the Book
December Iris is a photography book about a beautiful bearded iris that bloomed in my front yard during December 2012. I have many irises but none had ever rebloomed after the spring blooming cycle. To see iris stalks teeming with buds in late November was surprising and a treat worth waiting for indeed. At first, I assumed the iris was confused in its blooming cycle due to the mild autumn weather we were having in Virginia that year. I later discovered, it was a reblooming bearded iris. Normally, the rebloomers might enjoy a second blooming cycle from August to October in my area. However, this one had a third blooming cycle. I captured the first image on December 1, 2012. As of Christmas day 2012, it was still blooming.
