At this time of year, so much has begun blooming that it is hard to know where to look first... This purple iris is a favorite of mine, from a transplanted batch given to me by a colleague who was retiring and selling her house. (And when I draw it, I can leave out the weeds which would be visible in a photograph, parrticularly that @#$#%# wild morning glory which regenerates from next to nothing and tries to choke everything in that corner of the yard.)
