Iris
The iris are in
bloom again. Currently enduring the
pelting of a steady rain but valiantly displaying exceptional beauty. Every year I marvel.
----------------------------------------
Update May 31, 2013: Although the iris continues to impress and new blossoms fight for attention every day, I'm afraid the peony bush is now vying for pride of place. Notoriously short-lived, the peony nonetheless graces any garden with an intense color that defies easy description. Not everything has been a success this year; the tulip crop seemed to be limited to the reds. I think probably up next will be the hydrangea.
