Iris "Perfect Pitch" tightly budded (for now)

{{!gwi}}

The 31th??? Sure can tell I did a cut and paste. sheesh.

Susan, had you not said that was a flower, I would not have had a clue. You're going to go away for four days and when you come back, it will be in full bloom. Take another picture then.

I will, thanks, Jodi. The 31th sounds like you have a lisp. :-)

This squirrel's head looks horse-like to me, or maybe a little like a dog's head. Anyway, he's an odd squirrel sitting in a mossy tree:

I would never have known that was a flower, either Susan.

Susan, I knew it was a flower! What else could it be? lol

My favorite ground cover. I have no idea what the name is.

Thanks for a good laugh I'm glad someone else notished the 31th

Kat, that may be soapwort, but not sure. Pretty anyway!

We "notished" it, Minnie! LOL

Nicole, are the Pricklyy Poppies large too? The Matilijas are about 6" across. Their nickname is the 'fried egg' flower.

Jodi-

Jodi...They're more like 4.5"....so I guess matilijas are bigger!!!! WOW! Do the matilijas have stickers? If they don't....then they are FAR superior!!!! lol :0)

I don't know if Matilijas have stickers. I'm going on two hikes tomorrow and will take photos if I find more Matilijas.
