 Dear Blog Friends,  Can you believe it is MAY?????   Time flies when we're having fun,  doesn't it?   George and I are doing as good as possible so far this year.  George turned 84 in March and I'll turn 84 in August. AND---we are both still 'kicking'!!!! ha ha

Last month I shared some of our Tulips,  and this month,  I'm sharing some of my favorite IRISES. We probably have over 100 different varieties.   Today I'll share a few for you to enjoy. 

I hope all of you are well and happy.   Have a wonderful MAY!!!!

BETSY and GEORGE

Hello and Happy May Betsy,

HI.. I would ask my Dad how are you doing Dad,? And he would say still kicking but not as high. That always made me smile.

Your iris collection is absolutely stunning, and I can only imagine the fragrance and color filling your garden with over 100 varieties.

Cure for breast cancer available said...

I’m grateful to share that I went through a difficult journey with breast cancer, and today I’m in a much better place and cured. During my treatment, I explored different approaches, including herbal support from a herbalist called Dr Disu. This experience meant a lot to me and gave me comfort and hope during a challenging time.

‎I’m thankful for my recovery and encourage anyone facing cancer to seek help from Dr Disu herbal medicine about their treatment. he cures other illnesses too like Herpes, ALS, Diabetes, Prostate cancer etc. contact his email: drdisuherbalcure@gmail.com
