Blooming Tuesday


I don't know if it's the extra rain or the cooler weather this year....but whatever the cause my Iris are huge this year and really stunning. 

These all came from my sister who got them from an old man who was thinning out his gardens and set a big box along the side of the road with "Free" written on it. 
I mean a BIG box.

So we have no idea what kinds they are except that they are all beautiful. 

The shade garden is starting to fill in and look nice. 

I still need to pick up some annuals to fill in but I have gotten out the garden art and set them around :)
So even though it's still chilly and wet and we even had frost warnings again last night...things are waking up and looking good :)

    Yes, your irises are stunning! I have mostly sun so I always envy someone's shade garden. I enjoyed visiting.
