There's nothing to growing irises. Easiest of easy. They are normally not bulbs.
The next photo is a different variety of iris, and they are bulbs. You just dig a hole -- depending on your winter will tell you the depth of the hole -- and plunk them down. They come up every single year.

My past is sorted and not fit for printing on this site. But believe me, those were all tame, like first date stuff.

"we're makin' out just fine. "
I can't even get the hubby to make out in semi-public places anymore. Hell, I'm lucky if he'll hold my hand in public. He went from being a wild man in our first couple of years to being anti-PDA entirely(even if there aren't onlookers) in the last few yrs. Maybe it has something to do with people confusing me as being his daughter? No idea.

Irises! I got them confused with orchids, which I love. Or are they the same basic flower? I want some hanging plants on my back porch because we already have the hooks installed. It gets full sun half the day and only indirect sun half the day. Any suggestions on some bright pretty flowering plants that would work well and wouldn't be easy to murder? We get plenty of rain here lately and the temps rarely go above 90-95 this time of year. Soon the temps will lower into the 80's and then the 70's by late Oct I think. I'm sure I'd have to bring them inside by November though because it starts getting below 60 by then if I remember right. I'm in GA so it's hard to guess when fall will start and when it will get chilly.

I promise you that my past could probably rival anything you've done. LOL I was quite a little slut when I was 16ish. None of my escapades at that age involved men younger than 20 either. I was a very very bad girl. I'm hesitant though to post anything from that phase of life in fear of losing everyone's respect. :) The few that I listed in the previous post were all after I had turned 18, except the closet one.

Happy puppy, Gabz! It is a happy puppy - old dog is not a happy camper and daughter is not being cooperative. It's going to be a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG night!!!
The puppy is gorgeous - the woman said to me on the phone she thought part of the mix as chow because of the balck on the tongues. I had no problem with that because the one I lost in February was a great part chow.
There is no chow in this puppy - that black on the tongue comes from Rottweiler!!!!!

I've always wanted a palm pilot. Can't afford it though. Hubby has to have a freakin' $800 root canal in a couple weeks. That is killing all hope if putting a decent dent in our debt so we can work towards getting a house.
