When we got home from the beach last weekend, we were greeted by iris and roses in bloom. This Electric Shock Iris was at the end of the driveway as we drove in.

Hi George,
Gosh it seems forever since I've been here. I was away too and am trying to get back into regular blogging.
This iris is gorgeous. I think purple is the best color for iris. I know it's my favorite.
I looked at your beach shots below. Gorgeous scenes. So glad you and Betsy had a great time.
gorrrregeous!
I love the color. Finding the yard in bloom must have been a nice surprise after your trip.
What a beauty George.
You take excellent shots and isn;t it nice to come home and be greeted in such a friendly colorful way?
These are your beauties:)
So delicate and beautiful. Thank you, George.
OOOH! This is such a beautiful iris!
