3 Irises blooming, and more planting...




I found 3 Iries blooming yesterday and was forced to take pics with my darn cell phone, which is a peice of crap...sorry for my french...but at least they turned out well enough to see a little bit. I did not have my camera with me, and it was irritating. Anyway, aren't they such little beauties??? I just love these simple ones that seem to do fairly well in shade here. I still don't think I would take a chance on them in my yard cause there basically isn't any shade, except where I rarely go...under the Sapodilla tree. I was thrilled to have found them though!

Today I planted Sweet Basil seeds, and Milkweed seeds. I will post some pics when I start to see any action!!!

  3. I like these little irises. I have requested some for Mothers Day. I hope I receive them. Good luck with your seed planting.

  4. Oh, pretty irises! I think your cell phone did alright showing the three different variations. I'm planting some sweet basil seeds too. :)

  5. Hi Julie, WOW---aren't those Irises pretty??? We have several buds --but no blooms yet. Once the Tulips are gone, hopefully the Irises will take their place.

    Have a wonderful weekend.
    Hugs,

  6. Lovely flowers! In my beginning posts, all the photos were taken using a cellphone ,a 3.2 mp cellphone camera. But now recently I have bought a decent camera and I continue my blog taking pics with my camera!

  8. Don't think I've ever seen irises that look like these. The color combinations are crazy beautiful. Almost don't look real. Of course, I know not one think about irises except that I like looking at them.
