Nice! Our tulips are done, as are the daffodils. We're well into lilac season here, but we don't have any irises. I'll have to plant some.
ours are mighty successful--I wish I understood how I kill some plants and others thrive in my care
Ever hear of a kid's book called Mr. Pine's Purple House (it's cute, it's about a guy who moves into a suburb where all the houses are the same).
I LOVELOVELOVE iris.
*note to self: plant more iris next year*
Beautiful Iris! I like your purple house too.
I kinda' wondered about the purple house. But, y'all seem kinda free, arty and eccentric...so, it fit y'all!
BOO-T-Full flower(s). The wind whips so much around here I finally quit. It blows the blooms right off the stem.
Told DH, I want landscaping...but the low/self maintenance kind ;-D
