Little corner of my garden.

You know the ditty dont you?

spring has sprung

The grass is ris,

I wonder where the birdies is?

But thats absurd

Because the wing is on the bird!

I blame old age!

Im glad my name is coming back, My mum said she chose it partly because it couldnt be shortened, she had slso considered Pearl, Im glad she chose Iris.

Hope you are well, I see you have Bronchiectasis, but have had it much, much longer than I have. I find it tiring, worrying and unpleasant but some days are not so bad as others. the sunny days help. Love Iris x

I feel the same about the bronchiectasis, Iris. It's pretty difficult to manage but I get lots of good days and I'm so grateful for that. You keep well too.

Hi Lyn

the garden is changing every day now and hyacinths seem to thrive and multiply in this garden! We have alight, free draining soil and bulbs enjoy that it seems. We are able to do less and less in the garden what with age and health, so it will get out of hand, but we do our best and struggle on! Love Iris x

That is so pretty Iris - a really lovely corner. We are on heavy wet clay here so the stuff is struggling in all the rain - still, a brave show of daffs and pheasant-eye narcissus, the roses love a good clay, but that's for later - looking very healthy though. My ma-in-law used to say that you know it's Spring when you can put your foot on nine daisies - either that or you've got very big feet!

Hi Dragonmum

Yes, roses are not so happy here, and I love roses, so we keep trying. You must be warmer than we are here in Herts, our narcissus are not out yet. they are a favourite of mine, too. Love Iris x
