One reply on “The first two irises bloomed today…”

My Dad had given me iris bulbs from the back yard 3 or 4 years before he died. He grew the most beautiful irises… huge and the most beautiful deep, blood red burgundy shade I’ve ever seen. I planted them around the house we lived in off 136th Street on Ocean City. Every October for the past 5 years I’ve said we’re gonna go on a covert mission in the middle of the night and dig up the bulbs so I can put them in big planters and keep them with me… but I always chicken out. Ever since, though, irises have always been one of my most favorite flowers, and I can honestly, when it comes to the ones my Dad grew, say I have never seen their equal. I’m so glad you have these.
