Nádherné kosatce, krásně vám rozkvetly. Také je pěstuji, mám modrofialové a ještě čekám na žluté.
ReplyDeletePřeji radost z květů!
Debbie, your photos are absolutely stunning.
ReplyDeleteWe live in VA, and my mama loved iris. She had them, then my brother, then I had them. I am 76 now, and am not able to tend to things outside since I had a stroke ?? years ago...(maybe 8 or so. )
ReplyDeleteAnyway I often check your blog, and your photos and trips are always fun to look at! Thanks for blogging --- so many people aren't anymore....
thanks so much for stopping by. i try to write something everyday and i am happy to know you are reading!! the last week was so busy, i was not able to keep up but i am trying to get back into the swing of things!!
DeleteThese are so beautiful. I love it.
ReplyDeleteLove that pale pink Iris!
ReplyDeleteMy heavens those are all so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteIrises always have such a graceful presence and your photographs capture that beautifully. I like that you included the meaning behind each colour because flowers often carry more symbolism than people realize. The purple and blue varieties especially stand out with their richness and elegance. Posts like this are a lovely reminder that nature quietly marks the beginning of new seasons and new chapters in life. I recently shared a new post on my blog too and would love for you to read it when you have a moment www.melodyjacob.com

ReplyDeleteWishing you a lovely day. Virginia
Hello there Debbie, your iris' are stunning! Happy Sunday to you.
ReplyDeleteDo you have all those colors in your yard? They are so lovely. We have two different kinds in our yard.
ReplyDeleteIrises, especially the purple ones, are a favorite of mine as well, Debbie. We had them in our front yard garden years ago in VA. The only "problem" was that they were rather short lived and some would topple over from the top heavy large bloom.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHello Debbie,
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures.
Wonderful all these bright colors of the springflowers.
Many greetings,
Marco
