The problem with Iris is that she only blooms in the early spring and not
throughout the summer. They are nice though. My iris are purple, and yellow.

(very big picture)

The neighbor remarked that "isn't it wonderful what a little bit of water will
do"

The flax has blue flowers, tiny delicate little flowers, wind blows and the
petals blow off, next day, all new blooms.
