Mother's Day Tradition Renewed

Years ago, when I used to live near my folks, I kind of established a Mother's Day tradition of driving into the foothills to visit the local Iris Farm. Mom and I both enjoy growing Iris and because they are so easy to share they are a great gift! Give one one year and two to three years later recieve divisions for FREE!!

Although I have been back in the area for several years now, it just hadn't occured to me to reinstitute the tradition until last week. Since I now have a flexible schedule, we decided Friday would be better (less crowded) than the weekend. Well it was BEAUTIFUL!!



Surprisingly we left only doing a minimal amount of financial damage ($20 for 5 plants). That may not seem like an accomplishment, but prices range from $3 to $45 per plant. So now we just have to wait until August when they are ready to pick up!
