I forget what these tall spindly iris are called, but I think they look nice against my 1st attempt at a garden totem

Very pretty, did you build the totem?

Politicians are like diapers, they need to be changed often, and for the same reason.

I love your totem!!! I've never seen one before. I saved your photograph -- now I have to start looking for the components. Questions: -- the bottom part is the concrete base of a birth bath? And the tall blue (vase I think?) part in the center -- does that have a flat rim? Did you add anything to the interior of it to create gluing space? What kind of glue did you use for this project?

Can you tell I'm intrigued????

Lovely iris and love the totem! I have wanted to make one for ages but most of the glass items I have found ended up being new ones for my glass shelves inside! Just haven't gotten the courage to glue them yet.

The Beauty of the moon-flower evokes music--the nocturnes of Chopin, the preludes of Debussy, and, above all, the long haunting cadences of \"Swan Lake\". You can hardly ask for more, from a little brown seed.-- Beverley Nichols 1898-1983
