Hey Allan, I have a yellow iris plant, too, and yesterday I saw a hummingbird flitting around it trying to drink the nectar. He stayed for about a minute and then flew off. I’m hoping he’ll come back but I haven’t seen him since. The irises are right outside my back door, so it’s easy to monitor. Have you ever seen a hummingbird near your flowers?
