Last week my friend Lauren and I went to Mid America, Keppel, Sisters, and Schreiners Iris, all in one afternoon. It was not enough time to see everything and it was raining all day long so here are a few "wet bloom" pictures.

Let's see some of your wet blooms too.

Because of the wet muddy fields and I was afraid I was going to slip in the mud so we never made it to the lower fields.

Lucky you but bad luck on the weather. We have had nothing but rain for about a week. I hope you did get to see some beauties even if they were wet.

We did see some gorgeous Iris, but I'm not sure how many are going to get posted. It's taking a few minutes to upload each picture. Blinking

You saw all of those places in one day? Blinking What a great trip! I would need a full day at each of them.

If you slipped in the mud you could have asked..."Do I get to keep the irises I landed on?". Big Grin

Thanks for sharing your photos! Thumbs up

Rob, Next year we want to go again but take about three days. Besides Mid America, Keppel, Sisters, and Schreiners Iris we also went to Adelman Peony Gardens. Blinking
