  • There's only one flower spike in about five iris plants in my garden.
  • It's gorgeous, but lonely
  • Love the colour variations between the upper and lower petals. Plus the nectar stripes are so pretty.

  • This pretty patch work is of a lungwort (Pulmonaria) and a wood spurge (Euphorbia).
  • Tulip 'White Parrot'...Parrot tulips are known for their unusual markings and shape. It is a nice, frilly addition to the front of the sunny end of this garden that is mostly in shade.
