Iris season is over

Was just out looking at the garden. A week of hard freezes

has taken a tremendous toll. The aril iris were in bud and all are mush

lying the ground. The juno iris are badly damaged, but at least they

flowered. Spuria look the best, pseudacorus the worst. Siberian and

louisiana have a few leaves that look OK. All the bearded are soft

and mostly lying the ground. This is a disastrous spring!

Trees, shrubs, herbaceous perennials ,all are badly damaged or

dead. Every lily has melted to mush. Flowering trees and shrubs had

all new growth and flower buds killed, they will have to start over from

scratch if they can!

I hope your gardens have fared better then mine. It makes a

grown man cry!
