"Superstition" Iris.....


I bought this a few years back and it is one of the few iris that I have left growing. I gave one of the three starts to my mom and dad so I would have a backup. It is very hearty. The camera actually lightens it to make it look deep purple but it can actually looks black in certain light. The bloom is a little beat up from the rains we have been having but I am so glad to see it blooming.

Maple Leaves

 I always get the neighbor's leaves in my yard in the fall. The red maple tree south of us is putting out great colors.
