Rita those irises really light up your yard while everything else is getting ready to explode. And talk about an explosion- your clematis are really stealing the show!

I have always adored lupines, but we can't grow the Russell hybrids here. The reds are my favorite. The photo really shows them off.

The iris look so pretty in the lowest level. Good placement!

Were you see those iris blooming along there in that front yard strip, it has Agastache in between (hummingbird mint). I doesn't look like much now, but as soon as it gets taller it starts blooming and just keeps on going until frost. It likes the same kind of conditions as the iris and I thought it was a very good combo there. I love Agastaches and so do the hummers LOL :-))
