When we left for our 'Great-grandchild' trip a few daffodils were blooming. When we got home two weeks later this is what we found! We were greeted by this! Another day or two it would have been long gone. By the time we got the camper unloaded and put away these were all greeting us! In the last 2 weeks these are looking good.
Your iris are beautiful (one of my favourite flowers) and your garden must have been a real pleasure to see on your return. It certainly put on a wonderful 'welcome home' show for you!!
Note to self: Leave for a couple of weeks and I too can have flowers that look like that. Thanks for the tip 2ofus!
I love, love, LOVE that pink Iris! I wish my garden was that weedless after two weeks! Even with mulch I get weeds! Your garden looks great
Thank you for your nice comments. I admit I'm rather anal about weeds and was pulling them up as soon as I stepped out of the truck! I didn't un-load the camper for a few days until the weeds were gone. Netty, I can mail you a start of the pink Iris (Beverly Sills) if it's allowed. It is one of my favorite's. .
That's a very generous offer 2ofus, and I wish I could accept it. There are rather strict policies about shipping plants over the border and I fear they might get confiscated. I'll just have to be happy with photos of yours
