A bouquet from the outdoors........


Picking up iris stalks from the ground I decided to cut off a few of the blooms to bring in to the house.  The  rains have done a number on most everything and it is getting to be the end of the season for some of the iris.  They have done well this year. 


The flag iris is going to bloom this year.  It is wonderful with its deep blue color.  I have a light blue variety that may bloom but it is in low light so it will be later. 


I do not know the name of the small rose but it blooms abundantly.  It is covered with blooms, all in different stages of maturity.  The flower is a very delicate one with small buds and then the finish of the blooming almost looks like a cabbage rose in it's shape.

Thanks for stopping by today.  I have stories to tell and yet will hold onto them until I have a longer period of time to write.   Subjects will include red violets, deer grazing in town,  a friend being surprise with an unexpected birth from her horse and general janitorial folklore and reality too.
