Don't let anyone rob you of your imagination,
your creativity,
or your curiosity.
It's your place in the world; it's your life.
Go on and do all you can with it,
and make it the life you want to live.

Oh, that's so inspiring! Love the picture of the flower.
Is that a peacock iris? I have one that has never bloomed. I moved it in the fall and am hopeful of blooms this year, as it is sitting atop the ground now.

Lovely iris. Which species is that?
Good morning Ladies ~
Marla ~ Glad you were inspired and enjoyed the picture.
Nell ~ No, it's not a peacock iris. I had that, but didn't have any luck with it at all. I posted some info and a link to this Fortnight Lily, Dietes iridioides. I just read that it likes some shade and mine are in full sun, so I may move them, to where, I don't know off hand.
SweetBay ~ It is Dietes iridioides. I had to ask in the FL Gardening forum, because I didn't know. I've just called it an iris.
I would love to be able to grow more iris, but the bearded ones and others do not like our heat and humidity.
