Quite a few years back, my sister and I took a trip to an Iris Farm that is located not too far from my house. I was seriously blown away at how many different varieties of irises there were!!
I leave you with several of the photos I took that day...in honor of Bailey and Dory.
Things have been so busy around here with getting our new little furry family members situated and used to our schedules! It is a work in progress. I have not been around to visit much and I apologize for that. We also had one of our best friends pass away unexpectedly this week. Life is just too short. Enjoy every single moment.
this is so wonderful... I wish I had a filed with this great flowers too... but I have not only one... no idea why they never grow in our garden...
ReplyDeleteLuv da iris photos!

Jeanne, What beautiful Irises. My mom loved this flower and I do too. I've never seen so many gorgeous flowers. I'm sorry for your loss. Also what a nice tribute to Dory and Bailey.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend.
Hugs, Noreen and Hunter
How pretty they are. It is pretty amazing how many different varieties there are. So very sorry to hear about your friend
ReplyDeleteWow! Many of our irises look like the ones in your pictures. We got a few of them from a local guy who had rows of them in his yard. He advertised in the Pennysaver. I wonder if this is the same guy?
ReplyDeleteWe love irises! Some of the ones in your photos look like ones we have in our garden. We got them from a local guy who had them in rows in his yard, probably 20 years ago. I wonder it it's the same grower?
ReplyDeleteThanks Ann. The irises at the farm were just beautiful! So, SO many different kinds!
ReplyDeleteThanks very much Noreen...I love irises also. It was amazing to see how many different kinds there are!! Thanks for stopping by and hugs to you and Hunter!
ReplyDeleteA lot probably depends on the weather where you are...they certainly is no problem growing them here in New York! The colors are just AWESOME! The farm was just an amazing sight to see!
ReplyDeleteYou are most welcome! Glad you enjoyed the irises...there were SO many to take photos of!! I really need to go back and take some more!

ReplyDeleteThanks so much Kinley! Hope you had an awesome weekend!
ReplyDeleteI think they are difficult to grow in some climates. We just happen to live in NY where they are pretty easy to grow. Believe me!! I cannot grow ANYTHING and they just happen to grow in my garden! BOL!
