Have a view of my daily photos or photos from my past. We all need to document the world around us visually. What I see is mostly what you get.

It Is Iris Season.......
I was out of photos so went to the garden to see what I had new. Three different iris have opened for the first time this season. This one is a small older variety of iris. I call them cemetery iris as they are some of the very first iris that were grown in this country. The wild flag iris was around and other orchid like wild flowers but these small ones were some of the very first. Today you can buy this iris and it comes with the name of "Bumble Bee." I did read a few years back that this one iris is the parent plant to all the hybrid iris today on the market.
