Beautiful! Irises seem to have a shade of blue all of their own, a lovely gift from your husband.
I also enjoyed seeing all the frolicking on the previous post! They may be growing up but only children have that sheer abandonment and love of life, delightful :)
Cut flowers are a gentle way to ease the longing for warmer days and spring's awakening. They are a beautiful grouping... and so nice to be surprised by them. Meems
Love that color. How nice of dh to present them to you. Flowers in the home is just an extension of our great outside. Loving my azaleas, forsythia,buttercups & snow drops. And even the little visitors on them.

I am a happily married woman of 27 years. I lived in Florida for 40 years and moved to Tn in 2000. We lived in the city of Brentwood for 6 years and move to Leiper's Fork in May of 2007. We have been in the country for about six years now on a 7.24 acre farm. We call it Dash Home Farm. Da-for Dave and Sh-for Sharon. We live in a victorian farmhouse made to look old(it acts old). We love the community of Leiper's Fork and the quaintness of the town (no lights).
