This peachy iris is my favorite, but I so enjoy all of the others. Come follow me thru the gardens ... it is a beautiful warm spring day with a soft gentle breeze caressing the earth ...
Such rich warm colors ...
So elegant ...
and regal ...
Looking upward to the Heavens ...
This is the beautiful roses that my sweet Harold(Mr. Dept911) gave me for our anniversary ... oh, is our home sweetly scented!
** Update on Sherry ~ We just spoke a bit ago & she is still on oxygen & the meds are playing havoc on her diabetes. She is still laboring to breath & they are starting a new regime of treatments. THANK YOU ALL for the overwhelming response to my request to drop her a card or note & ALL the beautiful uplifting prayers. She is so tickled to hear of each of you as I share your comments with her. If you'd like her address, just drop me a note at my email ~ blushing_rose_boutique@yahoo.com.
Your flowers are just lovely
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to pop by and tell you how much I love your Iris photos. That flower was my Mother's favorite. Enjoy your weekend ....

Love the irises! They are one of myfavorite flowers. I just think they are beautiful. You really got some beauts there. Love the yellow one. I have never seen a yellow iris. Guess what I am on the hunt for now?
ReplyDeleteOh what gorgeous iris Marydon! I LOOVE iris. They make me think of my mother and her love of them as well.
ReplyDeleteI still have some painting to do here, so why don't you get your painting clothes on and come right over here to Idaho and help me out? Doesn't that sound like a blast. I think I could learn to love to paint if I were painting with you!
I am so sorry to read about Sherry's illness. I will go and get something to her right away. I will continue my prayers for her.
hugs

ReplyDeleteMarydon, you have a beautiful array of irises. I especially like your salmon/peachy colored iris:-) Mine are about bloomed out. I looked all over the internet to buy repeat bloomers - hopefully I am not disappointed. Your post has made me long for more irises.
ReplyDeleteYour hubby did great!

Hello Marydon,
ReplyDeleteFirst time visitor - I love your Iris's too. I've been a friend of Shrri's for a little while and saw her trip to your house with Buttercup - they both said you were absolutely wonderful.
I would love Sherri's address to send a card too.

I just love irises and admire all the ones I am seeing blooming as I drive down the road. I think they are just gorgeous and don't know why I dont' have any. I have a question that you may be able to answer. How do you tell the difference between feed sack border pillowcases and just the sweet 1950's border pillowcases?
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful iris. I have some light purple ones I have had for 38 years in one place or another. I would like Sherrys address, bless her heart, wish she could get over this awful stuff. I will send u my email, think you have it though.
ReplyDeleteGuess what my word verification here is? Harim!! Is that like harem? LOL
