Pretty!! :) My flowers are all wearing their winter coats, it's still dropping down near freezing at night. :(

Oh, how pretty! Great pictures. What are the flowers in the first picture? I still have soooo much work to do outside. Somehow I just don't have the energy this year.

Sorry girls you must have been posting the same time as I was. Thanks so much, I do love my flowers.

I am sorry about your flowers shadow. I hope the weather gets much better soon .... very soon. Or loke I said before come on down to visit me. I will spoil you while you are here. And you can teach me about the embrodery module on the new (used ) machine. Sounds like a fair trade to me!

Here is two more irises new to me this year.

peacock orchid .. just opened this morning

Ducky ... I don't remember the name of the silly thing. That is the same one showing in the second set of pictures, first pic. I will try and find out for you though. Senior moment.....

Whats the white and the purple :roll: beautiful

Iris are my favorite flower EVER. I love them. I have a brandy-colored one that I look forward to every year. They are still a buds, but they will be blooming soon - I'll post a picture. Also have a pink one that my son and jDIL bought me a few years back that is striking. Your yard is fabulous, and I'm jealous. How about you come to Colorado and completely redo my landscaping? :D

Thanks for showing your beauties to us!
