Friday Flowers: Iris


Mom went out on Sunday to check on the progress of the big purple Iris and they were still closed tight. On Monday, she happened to look out the window and surprise they had popped, so she went out to capture a picture of them before she missed them. The weather has been crazy lately. The wind or rain could easily destroy them if she waits.


She says these are very special because Dog Dad's favorite Uncle gave him them from his very own garden when they visited him.


It grows so well, Mom has been able to give other people Iris plants from it, too.

  3. I love Iris flowers, too. We have a few in our yard but they are yellow ones, but I really love your purple ones.

  4. One of the great things about these perennials is that as they grow they can be divided and shared! Lovely color combo in this iris.
