Yellow Iris

Iris plants start small, perhaps with a single rhizome and expand from there. A happy clump of iris will get so crowded that it stops blooming altogether. They have to be divided. Because of this iris are passed between gardening friends. All of my iris have a history.

These gorgeous yellow iris were given to me by Jo Ann. She got them from a friend as well. It's a wonderful thing to be able to look at something so beautiful and cheerful and have it make you think a dear friend.

Finally some rain fell on the garden. A few cages blew over in the wind, but on the whole the garden is much happier!
