Iris



One of my Irises finally bloomed.  I have been waiting 10 years.




They were originally planted in Old Home, when they were dug up and brought here.  They were planted, then re-planted in a pot, and then re-re-planted in the ground two years ago when the dog broke the pot.  Every year they had leaves but no blooms.


Irises were my maternal grandmother's favorite flower.  So I am super happy that after waiting so long, we finally got to see one.

    It's certainly beautiful! I have to admit my irises haven't been consistent either. In fact, I haven't seen them in awhile. I hope they're still alive.

    Do you think that the blossoming of the iris indicates a shift in direction of your life? Just a thought.......Vx
