One very tall vintage pink/yellow iris found its way in the center of the alliums.
These three dark purple iris are the ones that looked black when in bud:
Chives and purple iris--I never tire of that combo.
Hens/chicks on top of the driftwood looking toward the dark purple iris from above.
Same piece of driftwood looking in the opposite direction:
It just began to rain here. That's good because I planted a few things this afternoon and they need the water. I love when Mother Nature is so kind to me!
I love all the purples and mauve's..those are our Celebration colors! Your garden is so pretty, Zoey. I can appreciate all the hard work you do to keep it like that.
ReplyDeleteBetty,
DeleteI think my garden is celebrating because we finally had a nice spring day!
Great color combinations!
ReplyDeleteThe Iris in my garden are done blooming.
My garden is always weeks behind the rest of blogland.
DeleteWhat beautiful shades of lavender and purple you have!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Patti.
DeleteI love that last shot of the drift wood! And all of your blooms are just awesome! The alliums are wonderful...I need to add those next year! Beautiful things happening here lady!
ReplyDeleteI think you would enjoy allium. The round flowers are just so unique.
DeleteHow pretty, Zoey. Love the alliums and chives and iris. My alliums (first year for them) bloomed several weeks ago and are done--my iris and chives are blooming now. Wish my alliums would have waited....they look great together!
ReplyDeleteYes, I am glad they are blooming together--sometimes the plants behave quite nicely. :)
DeleteI love your chives with your Iris. Beautiful combination of those colors and that piece of driftwood is fantastic.

Hi Cher,
DeleteI have had that driftwood for quite a few years. It used to be in the indoor recreation center at work and when the hotel was remodeled 10+ years ago, they gave it to me. I have about 4 large pieces, but that one is my favorite.
Zoey, that driftwood piece is wonderful, especially with the arbor in the background. I don't have much iris now, just siberian but they are all beautiful.
