The Iris' are blooming!

The Iris' are blooming in the front yard! A good friend of mine, Jean Baker, moved around a lot. She told me that each time she moved take some of the bulbs from her old house to plant at her new house. So these iris' are from our house on Edgemont. They were planted by the original owners of the house. They would bloom each year right under our large picture window in the living room.

When we decided to move over to Mesa, I dug up a few and re-planted them in our front planter and they have gone crazy. We now moved some to the back by the pool but they aren't doing as well.

This is a double-headed iris.
