My iris!

I was given these bulbs a few years ago and up to now they have come up 'blind' ..so I am thrilled to see this beautiful flower before we leave! 
Another busy day....antigen tests, form filling and packing to go to Italy tomorrow. Packing, sorting  recycling,  a hike and a lovely g&t apero with Wildmint and husband. Another hard goodbye! 
Thank you so much for continuing to visit and comment on my blip. I really appreciate you taking the time. I miss having time to browse your lovely blips but I will be back!
