An Iris from my garden

I tried to futz around with f-stops and things, do a close up with the rest of the garden in view.... It wasn't exactly what I thought it would be, but it's nice enough to include....

This is one of the iris that came with our rental. This is the first time it's bloomed in 3 springs!

Broadmoor Neighborhood, Little Rock, Arkansas

Although often growing in open dry shrub-grass dominated settings, the water table is likely high where Iris missouriensis grows. This site lies along the trail to the Bridger Foothills trail below the College M, south end of the Bridger Range, Gallatin County, Montana.

I love the spring and the Iris is one reason why. The color and symmetry I find hard to resist. They are absolutely beautiful.

Irises or "beardies" . Some color to remind up of warmer days.

This is one of the Iris which bloomed in my garden in May. Iris always make me remember my paternal grandmother who was an amazing gardener and especially loved Iris. She would graft them to create new varieties and had one named after each of her grandchildren. This is actually one of those plants which I took from my mother's garden (and she had taken from my grandmother's garden). I'm afraid I've forgotten if it was my namesake, or one of my siblings. As a gardener I'm not even in the same solar system as either my grandma or mother, and sadly I don't get many flowers on these Iris anymore. I really need to dig them up and replant them as the rhyzomes are root bound and other plants are crowding them out. 💙

Iris

On May 21, 2015, with the help of a friend, I, finally, started making some progress with my new camera! We spent most of the day at Sharon Audubon Center in Sharon, Connecticut, USA, practicing! One of four photos.
