While at the Melbourne garden festival in March this year there were a couple of the big bulb tents, I must of been in each of them for about 45 minutes agonizing about what to get for the front garden,I didn’t have a plan so had to wing it.
In today’s vase I have cut some of the Irises I put in, an oldie but a goody the dutch Iris blue magic. I bought a bag of 25 and planted them in clumps, they are all opening up now and I love how you get the double flower on the single stem.
Thanks to Cathy for this wonderful idea of filling a vase from the garden and sharing it with each other.
Lovely Dutch Iris. Mine are out now too and I love them – they are beautiful and yet so tough!

I agree and last so much longer cut from the garden than from the florist

Oh they are such a lovely shade of blue and as I have probably said recently it is quite refreshing to see some spring flowers amidst the late summer and autumn blooms! Thnaks for sharing

It’s hard to pick a favorite flower but Iris has to be at the top. Your spring display is beautiful.

I tried to leave a message earlier but the internet wasn’t cooperating. I think the Dutch Iris were a wonderful choice for your front garden and this week’s vase Jill!
