The hillside went crazy over the last few days. It has been hard to keep up with the general work, let alone get pictures. Here are a few garden shots. Will get back to individual iris soon!

Taken with my phone from the roof of my truck as I hauled a horse out yesterday. (Who says old ladies can't multi-task...or climb!)

Oh Pam! What a treat these pictures are. Absolutely gorgeous. I want to live in your garden.

How beautiful, Pam -- thank you for sharing!!

... Really looks great, Pam ..Arlyn

Pam,
Can just say "wow" and keep the pictures coming. Thanks for sharing.

absolutely breath taking! Love them!

Gorgeous! Like the garden helpers too.

Wow, those photo's are absolutely stunning, I can just imagine what it is like to be standing there looking at them and those garden helpers are gorgeous also.

Amazing garden.

The garden helpers are really not much help. They are under orders to "STAY OUT!!" of my garden especially the Lab who likes to bring me big sticks!

Bonnie Sometimes I think I do live there.....

I noticed that I reversed two on the earlier thread...In the correct order..

I'm Back (Purples) and Don't Miss This (Yellow)


Some reds...
Show Time and Vitafire



Can Can Red


Pinks and pastels...
Hurricane Lamp and Sotto Voice


Lace Jabot


Blues.
Yaquina Blue and Codicil


And Thorn bird....just cause it 's so....different!


This one somehow migrated into a patch it did not belong in....Garden Gnome strikes again!!

Really nice Pam -- some of those I've never seen before. But Lace Jabot is one that I've admired for years!!!

with Mary Ann about Lace Jabot, and I like the beard on Codicil, it looks so good with that blue iris.

Codicil!!! gorgeous! I also like Vitafire. All lovely irises.

...Arlyn

And I agree with Tom on the beard on Codicil -- don't know how I overlooked that...............

I love the beards on Codicil!

May I ask what your avatar :SNORK: means? Tell me to MYOB, if you don't want to tell.

No problem Polly! When I am not in the garden or shoveling horse poo, I spend as much time as possible snorkeling. I have as much fun photographing underwater creatures as I do Iris. There are several Pams on another forum that I belong to for travel - so that group dubbed me Snorky. I thought that sounded a little too much like Snarky ( which I will admit to being on occasion ) so I just shortened it a little!



Funny looking Iris!

Pam, your garden is beautiful! Thank you for the lovely pics!

great Pam. A lovely iris garden.
