“What a lonely place it would be to have a world without a wildflower!”
We saw our first hummingbird today so I put the feeder out. Spring has officially hit her stride. The rose-breasted grosbeaks cannot be far behind. And look what is blooming in the woods!

How nice to see the irises in flower! We haven’t actually seen a hummingbird, but the level of sugar water has gone down quite a bit, so we know they’re coming through…

We have one male hummingbird thus far. He was quite content to drink the sugar water we provided. The wild irises are so beautiful but they are hard to reach for photos!

They are a gorgeous little flower, tucked away in a single patch that is very hard to reach.

I thought it was a Clematis, but I was wrong. 🙂

It is a wild iris, Pete. A native plant for this area.

Summer can hold off while ai enjoy spring. Summer is hot and all the flowers disappear by then.

Our summers here are so short and our flowers usually come into their fullest during summer. There is something about the heat I like as long as I can get out of the sun.

Aren’t they lovely, Wilma? Their life span is very short, but so joyful when they pop forth.

I had never seen a wild iris and they are beautiful. They remind me a little of wild trillium in the forests in Oregon.

We have so many wild trilliums here on our property, but they are a crimson color. I do love the wild irises, they are so beautiful and tucked away in the undergrowth.

We have a couple of crimson ones too. In Oregon we were always told that if you picked one it would take seven years for it to grow back. I never found out if that was true.

Hmmm. I’ve never heard that. We easily have hundreds of them on our property.
