I saw tons of Iris during a garden tour in Jerome, AZ yesterday. Everywhere around town, there's purple iris' that they call Jerome Iris. They are huge and wonderful. I never saw so many at once, and every garden has a stand of them. Must be a tradition for the town.
Happy GTS,

Muum,
I have mini irises too. I divided them last year and they are coming up all over the place.
Aiyana,
It is definitely iris season. We have four huge iris gardens in my little town alone.
Deb,
What state?
Sara,
Thank you.

I really like the hangs planters.
Are the gold flowers called 'basket of gold'?

Beautiful!
There was an iris garden near my old house, and every year I say I'm going to start growing them. And every year they pass me by. Maybe next year.

Malisa,
They are really easy to grow and they multipy.
