Ms. Katharine Hodgkin
of the Iris histiroides clan
has graciously remained with us for Easter Sunday.
Most of her cousins arrived earlier
and have already taken their leave for the year
all but George, in his glowing purple robes.

Wow, I love that flower with its leopard skin pattern on the two petals. Kind of funky, and of course, you captured it perfectly.

The snow knocked down all my flowers. But I'm looking forward to the dwarf iris.

I'm getting irises, too, in my garden! How lovely is your intimate and crystal-clear photo.
