I forget the names of my iris, but this one is especially pretty.

That is lovely!

It would make a nice birthday gift for Lilo, especially with the droplets of water on the flower and the leaves.

Beautiful. For some reason garden irises don't do well in my garden, but I have two batches of crested dwarf irises which around here grow in the wild.

Jim, what variety are the tomatoes? Have to drag all my seeds out and get in gear out in the greenhouse. Now you have me thinking about BLTs and fresh tomatoes straight out of the garden.

Love it too. Please send me the bees if you have some extra ones this summer.

Jim, the 'creature' is very cute and unusual, but I can truthfully say I enjoy your pictures of beautiful flowers, i.e., the iris from a day or so, ago, and the interesting insects you have shown us just as much as the one of today. Just please keep on showing them to us. They're a breath of things to come!

It is a beauty. We have a similar one named "Pink Jabot". One of Georges favorites but he can never remember what a jabot is.
