first bloom- need ID please

18 years ago

I have been reading this forum for several weeks while I anxiously await my first bloom....now I can finally join in!

When I bought this house 3 years ago I noticed what I thought were iris planted in a really terrible spot- constantly damp and in total shade. They never bloomed and the foliage only got about 3 inches high. So after reading here how to transplant iris I got to work and moved these to a new bed I made in full sun, about a year and a half ago. They responded immediately and started growing even though it was mid-fall, and last summer they seemed to be happy in the new location but no blooms. I have been waiting so patiently, and hoping I did the all the right things when I moved them......now I am so happy!

Sorry I know this is long and boring, but I am so proud and you are the only people who I think will understand. Anyway, does anyone know what this iris is? The color is pretty true on my screen.
