Grandma's Iris

I love to see beautiful gardens!

Flowers of every kind.

Texture and colors all blending together.

But...I dislike yard work!
I stick to easy plants, like bulbs,
that keep coming back year after year after year....


These are my Grandmothers Iris bulbs.

She started her garden in Idaho
with them in the 1930's....
then transplanted them into
her garden in Utah in the 1940's.
When she passed on and her
house was being sold, I
dug up some bulbs and transplanted
them to my first home in the 1990's.
The bulbs then came with us to our current
home.

I love Iris bulbs...
you just know they are going to bloom
each and every Spring!
