WELL--enough Irises for today!!!!! The Irises are leaving us now--but hopefully some of the re-bloomers will bloom again in Fall.
Hope you are safe and well. We've had our share of storms here --but so far, nothing serious... It has been many years since we've had THIS much rain! BUT --after seeing what happened in Houston this week, I do NOT need to complain about 'just' rain here!!!
Hugs,
Betsy

We have also had tons of rain and a tornado too, just a mile or so north of us in Elkhorn.
Your iris are absolutely beautiful. So many varieties.
Blessings,
Betsy
Wow, totally stunning! The iris are blooming here, but none are never as gorgeous as yours. My favs are Orange Harvest, Broadway, Goodnight Kiss, and Laura. So you can see that most of them are my favorites!
Hello Betsy
So wonderful to see your beautiful irises, the colours are amazing.
Keep safe and well.
All the best Jan
Those are gorgeous. We have buds just now showing on some of the iris I have planted here in NH.
I never knew there were so many varieties. Everyone of them is gorgeous.
They're all beautiful. The iris here are just now getting ready to bloom. It won't be long before I can post my yearly iris photos :)
Really pretty as always Betsy
I wonder if all the rain helped us hve so many beautiful irises. Your pictures are gorgeous.
Oh those beautiful Irises!!
Your flowers are always so beautiful. My mom would have been in Heaven to get to see such profusion here on Earth. She loved Irises. Are you able to remember all their names or do you have to look them up - - or do you have your floor garden labeled. Where did you get all of them? Catalogs? How long does George work in the yard on an average of a week or day? Looking forward to answers in another post? Thanks for sharing. It encourages us to get outside and work. One more question - - what does he use for fertilizer and what time of year?
