The 2nd iris has finally bloomed. It is lovely.
The 1st iris continues to bloom in the background. Which color do you like best? 2nd iris is named "Orange Flirt." I was expecting something, well, orangish. Maybe it flirts because it is winking at orange from across the color wheel. Your father brought home these lilies, which look much like my day lilies but bigger, earlier this Spring. One finally bloomed. It is small, but beautifully formed. It also lasted just a day, but there are buds promising more to follow.
I planted some of these autumn sunflowers last Fall because of their coloring. This is a left over volunteer trying to break into Spring and looking very out of place.
Last year's hollyhock also "volunteered" everywhere except where I left room for it. It has worked it way up through the climbing roses after sprouting in a crack between the walkway and the brick planter wall.
Still looks more green than here. . . how much watering is it taking?
