We just published pictures of our irises as well, dear Ann-Christine. Lets celebrate iris-time!

exquisite! 🙂

Irises – wonderful, aren’t they? And ours are nearly over, so this extra one was a real treat.
Ah, yes, you are a bit ahead of us, I know. Glad to serve a small treat!
Lovely Ann-Christine 🙂

That’s a beauty, A-C. When we lived in Illinois, there was a man not far away who had the most beautiful irises. We had some lovely ones but a different variety in our backyard.

I must say this is the one I love the most. I have two other varieties, but find them too big and not enough strict in shape. But surely, there is an iris for every taste!
So beautiful, that purple is so vibrant!
Thank you – I love them and their bright colours!

Ireeeeeee! Oops, I went all Rasta on you.
This needs an explanation to a native Swedish native.
Rastafarianism is a religion started by a follower of Marcus Garvey in the early 20th century. The religion views Haile Selassie (who was also known as Ras Tafari) as God incarnate. They view marijuana as a sacrament.
This is from the urban dictionary:
I am Jamaican and ever since I was young I can recall the term Iree even when not exposed to drugs… it’s not a drug term …its a way of life. Iree is about being calm pleasant and taking life a day at a time…
Paul: How are you going to pay child support you just lost your job ?
Bob: I’m not ganna stress mon, I’ll find a way.
Paul: Iree mon
We owe the Rastas for reggae music.
Now I learned a bit more, thank you. I connected rasta to a hairstyle only…
Yeah mon….
Terrific study of this iris. Beautiful captured 😀 😀
Beautiful. I have these too in my garden
Thank you – are they in flower now too?
Yes. They are. They suffered a bit from the dry weather we had, but rain had returned, but may be too late for the flowers which are fewer than previous years

Thank you so much, Cee! As you are the master of flowers it means a lot!
