Iris

Aren't they beautiful...very nice color...this is the color I remember my Mom growing..

These bring back memories fo my mom's too.

My mum always used to grow them too, these day's she likes to move around too much to grow bulbs so I always grow extra so I can give her some as cut flowers.

That's nice of you Wolf...making sure she still gets to have them...I remember as a child walking along the road and finding wild irises and daisies, I picked them every spring to run home to my mother with...I would put them behind my back and make her guess what I had..she always guessed rock first, then stick, then flowers...I would be grinning like a goon the whole time..when she got to flowers I held them out and she would exclaim over them like she hadn't a clue...

They've just finished flowering Marguerite. I think I have to delete the photo to turn it around, so I may just try again to get it facing the right way and upload it again.
No the photo is actually at my dad's house, I dug up my Iris's and took them with me in pots as I didn't want to leave them behind.

That photo there is this years crop in their big tub on the front porch, unfortunately they are now finished for the year. I put my hyacinths from my hyacinth jars in there so next year will have bulb spectacular hopefully. I thought about planting them in the ground but as I'm still staying with the folks I think they can stay in their tubs until I find my next house.
