Found The White Iris

I brought this iris from my old house. It
didn't bloom last year, so I am
very glad to see it again.
This is a very majestic white iris, measuring in
at 42" tall. I don't
know the name of it, but it performs
well in the garden - it multiplies fast and the
flower lasts a long time.


Garden area started by the rocks
 that used to have Pampas grass growing around them.
It is coming along nicely.



I added these iris to the "rose bed island".
The bud is Rustic Royalty iris, then Spin-off iris, and the purple
one is an unknown. I think it might be an
heirloom iris,

I just love the flower balls on the red onion.
Queen Elizabeth rose is in the
background. It is now about 6 ft tall.


Portmeirion David Austin English
rose. This has a sweet mild
fragrance.


Row of 7 Pink Knockouts.

I am adding stones to the border of the
Pink Knockouts.

Onions

Just planted Sweet Red Onion slips today.
Daffodils are up early this year. My tulips are also starting
to pick through.
