Done with the same exquisite beauty as your bird photographs. What am I saying! The same quality you present everything. It’s not the eye that’s so attractive, it’s the heart of seeing. These iris plants were a favorite of my mother while I was a child. Every year those amazing blooms. Thank you Cindy. I almost forgot, but then…
Oh oh, WP being naughty. Being creative about posing as a barrier to me. Poo.
Exquisite beautiful images, like your birds, like your everything. And it more than the beauty of things, it’s the beauty of the way you see. I know it is. As a child, I near forgot but now you remind me, the iris flowers were a favorite of my mother, putting them in large beds in our backyard. Thanks Cindy.
WP has some wicked goblins who never tire and never rest. Your mother’s garden must have been stunning. Thank you so much for your kindness Neil. You are so sincerely appreciated დ
Beautiful shots a a fab flower, Cindy. The Iris is an elegant beauty.
I was a late bloomer, so I get it. I’m hoping that will lead to being a late fader.

Maybe it’s wise to wait and bloom later. That’s when everybody else has already faded, so your beauty can shine all the more! Well done, Cindy (and Happy Thanksgiving!)
Literally, a six whole months late out this way. Have a great Thanksgiving Day! 🦃🦃🦃🦃
O/T: WP is still messing around – Got locked out twice, they’ve messed with the follower list so don’t know who’s receiving a new post noticed. If they’re trying to improve upon their platform, they’re not doing a good job.
I hear you. So sorry you are experiencing this. It is always something with the WP gremlins. They stopped notifying me about likes. They did find the problem, but followers still disappear, which is a problem that won’t get fixed. It helps reduce space utilization. Happy & Peaceful Thanksgiving Deborah დ
I love it when a new flower opens. This is the wrong time of year for that to happen here, but it’s a treat to see it on your post, Cindy. I did click to enlarge the photos and they are really stunning.
Cindy, thank you for granting us the opportunity to observe a flower with great depth. You reminded me of Georgia O’Keeffe’s quotes: “Nobody sees a flower – really – it is so small it takes time – we haven’t time – and to see takes time, like to have a friend takes time.” Thank you for your friendship!!!
Such a stunning flower and your photos are beautiful, Cindy.

And now WP does both of them! go figure…
Beautiful. It’s having amazing colour texture. Love the outlook. Thanks for sharing CK

Interestingly enough. Our beaded irises are our first flower to bloom in early spring. They must like cool temperatures.
I think you’re right. All of ours bloomed months ago, so this one is a lovely outlier დ

Hi Cindy, I have the exact same Iris coming in bloom in my back yard at the moment. Now that takes courage because it might snow later today.
Leslie
Wow! Synchronicity. Gives me goosebumps. Wonder what it means დ
The resilience of the Iris, I think… 😉
Yes. Reslience. Both of us the same flower, blooming late. I am lucky to know you Leslie. Take good care of yourself.
Many blessing to you Cindy.

You will bloom forever Resa and so will your incredible creations დ

That IS late. But worth waiting for.
Maybe Mother Nature saves the best for last დ
Maybe it’s wise to wait and bloom later. That’s when everybody else has already faded, so your beauty can shine all the more! Well done, Cindy (and Happy Thanksgiving!)
I like the way you think Debbie! Happy Thanksgiving my friend & cheers დ

Thanks very much my friend. These bloomers were a late season surprise, quite a nice one. Cheers to you and happy you stopped by დ
That poor confused iris! Wonder if it will bloom again in the spring.
It is still making new blooms! It is this solitary blooming beauty. Amazing დ
Cindy, thank you for granting us the opportunity to observe a flower with great depth. You reminded me of Georgia O’Keeffe’s quotes: “Nobody sees a flower – really – it is so small it takes time – we haven’t time – and to see takes time, like to have a friend takes time.” Thank you for your friendship!!!
What a brilliant quote. It does take time doesn’t it my friend. Thank you for knowing and sharing. Stay safe & well Rebecca დ
To me this particular flower looks as if it’s unhealthy.
Really. Why? დ
Gorgeous photos, Cindy. I love how iris bloom in stages on their own timeline.
Thanks much Tracy. They are magical aren’t they დ
I need to find a word that is stronger than WOW!
I love wow and appreciate your thoughtfulness Jennie. Thank you my friend დ
You are very welcome!
დდდ
Love all the late bloomers. It is possible!
It is! Love to you my friend.
