I never even noticed

I am so tired and frazzled I did not notice that some of my iris have begun to bloom. It had to have been in the last day or two. I was sitting outside at 9 last night and in the just barely dark of the evening I could just make out some white ruffled iris. They are mid height. Besides them are some two toned mahogany iris that are about a foot taller. One of my miniature iris bloomed and I never evedn saw the blossoms, they are so low growing. I have a lot of herbs up as well. Hopefully this weekend I will get to appreciate more of the nature in my own yard.

They are so easy care, but look very nice.

@GardenGerty I tried to ask my brother to continue his small garden upstairs in the house.

I am getting to be outside more and more. I even enjoy mowing. More so I enjoy relaxing after I have mowed. Everything smells so good.

@GardenGerty - I love working outside in the garden, even if I come back inside exhausted once I have finished.

You must have quite long twilights there. It is never any light at 9 pm here unless it's moonlight. I hope you are able to enjoy the irises more now.

In the summer our sunsets are quite late. There are a couple of security lights nearby, but mostly big open sky so we can enjoy the light a little longer.

@GardenGerty I loved the long twilights in Ireland too. So different to here.

It is nice. Many of my flowers represent friendships and people who have shared with me.

I am sure you will. Spring is here even if the weather doesn't always reflect it.
