Ok, I've got that out of my system. Now I can get to thinking about a more interesting post. Thanks for being so patient!
The pictures spoke volumes while you took a word break.
ReplyDeleteOK. You just introduced me to a flower that I'm not sure that I can live without now: Iris tectorum. WOW!
ReplyDeleteIf you are at all familiar with the wild crested iris, well, iris tectorum is similar, only much bigger. It is short, less than a foot tall, and the rhizomes grown in a circle, or "crown" pattern. Very florific. I'll take some pictures of the group and post them next time. I love this one! very hardy.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, wonderful pictures. I'm very glad I started my day by following hostageek and yourself. Where do you live? I'm sure it must be somewhere in your blog info, but I didn't find it easily. I'm on Vancouver Island in Western Canada and most of the plants you've taken pictures of won't be in bloom for another 3 weeks to a month from now. Thanks again for the good morning!
ReplyDeleteI'm in SW Missouri, zone 6b. Long ways from you! Thanks for the follow!
ReplyDeleteYou never need to add words with pics like that. The pics tell a wonderful story. jim
