These are all just great. Thanks, I remember my grandmother always had
iris. I don't remember the splendor that these have now days however.


My mother had them too - usually the ubiquitous blue ones. I never really
liked them but we do have some in this garden - don't know why.

However, Pat has the knack of making ANYTHING look exquisite.

I'm wondering why this rush of pictures (NOT complaining!) - is it a
clear-out of files or has there been a visit to a speciality garden or ...
couldn't possibly be an attempt to convert me, could it?

A tiny crack in my defences is showing ...

My guess is that it's the season, one of my iris is about to bloom. I
thought of taking a picture of just the bud and posting it.

Spring is here. (some places, anyway)
