in the garden: dwarf iris
I am such a sucker for iris, especially miniature dwarf iris. It’s probably just as well that they’re not real easy to find, although I’ve done quite a bit of damage through Monument Iris Gardens in Nebraska - he grows tons of great varieties. But they’re sturdy and early blooming, and they come in a wonderful range of jewel tones that really perk up the May garden. This one is called “Being Busy” - I love the bright blue beard.
I have just stumbled upon your blog. I love the clean design and fantastic photos. I am a blogger myself and always thought that design was key and you have certainly captured that! There are so many food blogs out there these days and being different to all the others is key. I have just started http://www.ifoods.tv which is a website for chefs, foodies and food bloggers to hand out, share recipes, photos and videos. When i was blogging I always thought i should be getting more traffic as my blog was getting lost in the masses of stuff out there so my new site is aimed at giving food bloggers and chefs a bigger platform! Hope you enjoy it and keep up the good writing and design here! I have now bookmarked you so will be regular reader, Cheers!
