It may have decided to go to Kentucky instead, Tom................

No rain until Thurs. when we will be in the 0s. Below zero earlier this morning. our small snow cover (left over from the 3" snow fall) still protects the plants. Our reticulatas bloom in April.

Lucy, when do your SDBs start blooming?

early May

that feels so far away

Nope, it's coming down like made, it's the same storm system as the one bringing you the fluffy stuff.

I'm watching snow fall also! It's apparently going to snow till dinner time Monday night! Go back to bed little Iris!

I know you're tired of hearing us say it, but I wish it was raining here. I'm sitting here in shorts and a t-shirt and I'm on my way to a picnic.

cold here Rob but very dry. I watered Thursday and Friday and it looks like I will be watering again this week.

Enjoy that picnic Rob. Been very cold here, snow tonight, Wintry mix in the AM. Oh Boy!

I was in San Leandro, Ca. Friday. Amazing how fast things greened up out there compared to a couple weeks ago.

Men in Black (Lauer) Because, well, for reasons.
Thank you, Bonnie.



Mary Frances (Gaulter) Um, for reasons, too.
Thank you, Dave.



June Krausse (Schreiner) One of the few pinks in the yard, eager to find out if I like it--don't care for pinks, per se, but this one looks pretty.
Thank you, Brad.



Jillaroo (Ensminger) It is a parent to Gizmo the Gremlin and I like my Gizmo.
Exline order.



Hysteria (Blyth) Well, because I want to see what it looks like in person.
Thank you, Brad.



Mountain Halo (Ernst) Has an interesting colorway.
Thank you, Tom.

Deb -- you're gonna love June Krausse -- the color is wonderful.............



And look at those beards................

Thank you, Mary Ann.

Saw it at Schreiners during convention & I was quite impressed/

I started comparing iris sizes to underwear after that, I guess the dwarf varieties are little thongs!

I used to teach a story where a Native American grandfather wore a thong around his neck to hold a medicine bag. My students freaked out until I explained a thong was also a thin strip of leather.

Yes, one must be up on the current lingo when you teach school or the class will be rolling their eyes and snickering. (Used to teach about Native Americans too).

Don't call sandals "thongs".

We used to, meaning the ones that looked like flip-flops, only more sturdy.
