Hi radu.

Wow is this Iris blooming on the farm? WOO HOO! Iris don't bloom here until June.

What about Violas?? Do you have some this year??

Howdy feather!
Yes, that iris is blooming in the bed in front of the big gas tanks. I snapped the shot this afternoon.
Aunt Clara has several gorgeous varieties of iris stuck here and there around the farm, all blooming at different times. Here's another one, in the bed between the guest house and the barn.....

I wish the sun had been shining today. The flowers would be much prettier in sunlight.
It's GLOOMY and wet around here............did you notice the rain drops on the iris in the other post? Those are fresh drops. The wind apparently had already dried the drops on this iris.

The violas aren't doing too well this year for some reason. :-( Some have come up but nothing like the past couple of years.
