This purple and lavender colored tall bearded iris is called Social Graces. I found it at the iris flower garden in Van Saun Park. Van Saun park is one of the 21 Bergen county parks in the northeastern section of New Jersey. [ Explore 19 March 2011 ]

I am READY for Spring!

We are again going to below 0 tonight. We just got done having rain and almost 40 degrees melting all our snow???

Have a nice rest of the week!

from my garden and now long gone...

The iris flowers this year were enormous - tall as well as having large flowers.

More and more iris are opening.

Unfortunately, my computer is acting strange and not working well, after a thunderstorm went through. We'll see if this picture posts...

I got off track with that last photo of the kitty. I forgot that I was supposed to be uploading photos of flowers. Okay, here's one. The beautiful Iris. And, isn't it beautiful? Well, I do declare that it is! :)

If I could buy something for my garden I would buy this Iris.

Beautiful bi-coloured iris.

Winter Iris fairy. She brings hope of spring and renewal as she helps the Winter Iris poke up through the snow to show that all is not lost in the hidden paths of the winter, but colors will return shortly.
