Although we are still getting some nights in which the temperature drops below freezing, today brought the first blooms on our native Blue Eyed Grass, which is an Irid. I saw these blooms on only one plant, and that one plant is the one in the most sheltered location compared to the others.
It is in a plant bed, sheltered somewhat by Indian Hawthorne bushes, and is protected by a two nearby wall that absorb the sun's heat by day, and thus help protect the spot from freezing temperatures.
