And if you voz to zee my Iriz…

Pardon me, while I tap into my Hungarian roots, here, but I love this time of year, minus the wet.

DSCN5172Some of my favorite flowers are blooming, RIGHT NOW, most of which we adopted from my parent's garden, before selling the house they spent 30+ years, rebuilding, literally, from the ground up.

It was just too much for them.

After 7 years of successfully negotiating dozens of hurdles that life continues to throw at them, my parents are still making beautiful things happen, in the dirt.

It's in their blood.

I've read that there are over 200 varieties of Iris (Irises?) but, that pretty little thing, there on your left, grows right outside our front door and, well, it just makes me smile…BIGTIME.

Aaaaand, that, right there, izzzzz a verrrrry gut ting!

    We've got them lining our walk in different areas, too.  The colors are amazing.  They are very hardy plants, too, which adds to their appeal, I think.
    Hugs,

    I would love to see some Iris(es?) lining my walkway. It would be a lot prettier than the weeds that are there now. 🙂 I’ve got two planter boxes in the front of my house. They are pretty big and Iris(es) would look fabulous in them. I wonder if I could grow them here? It is a gorgeous looking flower.
    I love how you’re getting back to your Hungarian roots . . .
