A Lovely Garden

This post is for the pure love of flowers and gardening.  I had a chance to visit a friends garden that is just spectacular.  A relaxing bit of a walk amongst some gorgeous blooms and I thought you would appreciate a snippet.
The Iris were just finishing up and I missed the best blooms by a week but what was left was still an eyeful.  This beauty is appropriately named “Cinnamon”.

This one has a floozy of a name…”Color Tart”.

Drats!
But I know where she lives and I shall return.

I will have my garden gloves with me to pitch in and weed a bit.

I love how the backdrop plant just sets off the pink of this one.  I failed to get the name of either the backdrop plant or the Iris but like I said, I shall return.
Carols Garden, FlowerPatchFarmhouse.com (17 of 60)This one is definitely on my want list…it is called  “Shakin All Over”

Brainstorm Iris, FlowerPatchFarmhouse.comThe Iris colors ranged from subtle and sweet to eye popping bright.

But wait..  there is more, oh so much more.  I will spare your eyes today but I will share again.   There are rhododendrons and a few peonies too along with a few more Iris.
I so hope you enjoyed the Garden Tour so far!
Happy Gardening,

  4. I am sure they will do great! And you will be addicted. If you are looking for more gorgeous colors try http://www.schreinersgardens.com/ I am not affiliated with them, I just am always impressed with their selection, price and quality of the rhizomes they send.

  5. The iris are so beautiful. I have started to plant some in my south garden, but yours are simply stunning!!!
