It's very colorful at your house, Paul. None of my Irises have set buds yet -- good thing since it's supposed to be 29* tonight. Got my Peonies covered up last night, trying to salvage blooms in the freezing temperatures.

I sure like Gingerbread Trim!! Smiling

Some nice flowers, there, Paul. Smiling Keeno is one of my sister's favorite games. And since she is living with me for awhile, it might be good to get the Iris for her.
