| #5 may be some kind of salvia #4 is Siberian rather than bearded iris |
|
| I agree that 4 is Siberian iris and I think 5 is a Veronica such as Crater Lake Blue. |
|
| RE: #5. you can tell by the leaves and by the smell if it's salvia or veronica. Salvia has oregano-like scented foliage ---- others refer to the scent of the plant as obnoxious cat-pee. I've attached a link to a GW discussion of the difference between these two plants. More specific info is given in the thread. Molie |

| I'll second nhbabs thoughts on #5. Looks just like my Veronica Crater Bake Blue that is just now starting to bloom. |

| The fifth is definitely a Veronica, perhaps one of the V. austriaca forms. |
