     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.
