Love it and love your quote. Purple and green are my two favorite colors. Love your bouquet in the mason jar. Great post.

My favorite Iris color . . . your photos were perfect!

My Iris bloomed this week . . . They are very small and were from a bed cutting my mom gave me 45 years ago. They came from mom's beds in Iowa, then to Wisconsin, on to Michigan. I brought a bed cutting when I moved from my one home in Western Michigan to my " now home" I had built twenty years ago.

I share cuttings of this Iris and have mailed them back to Iowa, to Colorado, south . . . all over . . . It is a very tiny Iris, mom called it a Japanese Iris . . . Guess I will do a post on the Iris . . .

Love the pictures and the quotes! I think I'll look into how to grow irises in Florida. I've heard it can be done.

Glad you stopped by my blog too. :)
