The other morning, we had both frost and a dusting of snow! I wondered if my irises would curl up and die before blooming, or tough it out. As you can see, these delicate beauties are also pretty darn tough!
I love the way the vibrant green offsets the purple, white and orange of this bloom. This really screams spring to me!
This is a different, but similar bloom. The sun shining on it creates such a warm feeling.
Here's a close up of another iris bloom. I really like the complexity to these flowers. They haven't bloomed for the past couple of springs, and I almost gave up on them, thinking they really didn't like the environment here. Glad I didn't!
This image reminds me of those Victorian (or is it Edwardian?) shirts with the extensive ruffles down the front of the shirt.
Enjoy!
