Re: OT: Bloom report
Hi Jan and All, Yes Spring is on the way, mind you I wasnt so sure after all
the hail we had two days ago.Jan, I have my first spring bloom out and its
not a daff or a narcissus but its a Reticulata Iris. Is this exceptionally
early for them?,It is a dark purple/gentian violet colour with gold stripes.
Why no label? Unfortunatly it got blown away on the weekend with that gale
force strong northerly wind we had down here. My wind chime cow was blowing
around at a ridiculous angle.Bet she got dizzy......Spring,spring, its a
wonderous thing......Makes you all fuzzy.:)))
Cheers ,Wendy.
