Very showy bed! I love mass plantings but have never done them; may be time to rethink my gardens...

This is the only mass planting that I have Grammazoo. They were all planted at a house that a friend of mine bought and she decided she didn't want them. She dug them all up and put them in a large box and dropped them off to me. I had a row of hybrid daylilies planted there so I simply planted the Iris around them. The daylilies will be the next to bloom. P. S. Are you having some hot weather in your neck of the woods today ? It is 92 degrese here. Thank God there is hardly any humidity and there has been a nice gentle breeze all day.

Your iris bed reminds me of the mass plantings that use to be so popular. They can be very spectacular! Like yours!
Sounds like the country is topsy turvy today, we'll be lucky to see 70. : )

I would be very happy to send you around 15 degrees Wohlibuli. IT'S HOT
When I go back to work tomorrow they will think that I spent the day at the beach. I got a lot of color today working out here in the garden. Notice I said " out here ". I'm on my laqptop on the patio. One of the BEST things I ever did buying a laptop.

Hi Mike! Yes we have been lucky here too for the last few days, hitting 88* & 90* without the humidity!! It has been a fairly dry May here, but quite cold, so the lovely weather is so nice to see.

This is a great bunch of iris. I love them in mass like this. Sounds like some clever planting as well with the daylilies to follow.
