<\/p>\n

Our irises in the DISPLAY and GROW gardens include approximately 50 varieties. We are constantly adding more because we love the irises! This has been an exceptional year for blooms.<\/p>\n

The bloom season ends in early summer for many of the irises, but there are several classified as reblooming that will continue to put on a show throughout the summer months.<\/p>\n

Some are fragrant, while others are there just for their beauty.<\/p>\n

Scroll through our images and come back again and again (there is an iris named Again and Again!) to see all of our irises photos as we grow.<\/p>\n

I love to write, sew, quilt, craft, cook, paint, and always looking for new ideas to make or share. I love to use my camera to capture life and tell a story through pictures. I have a web and graphic design business that keeps me busy, but I love my work and enjoy interacting with my clients as together we see their vision become a reality. More than anything, my greatest passion is serving God in a way that others see Him through me. I don't always do everything just right, but each day I get up, I turn that day over to God, asking Him to help me try to get it right one more time.","url":"https:\/\/sandiherron.com\/blog\/author\/sandi\/"}]}},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/sandiherron.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/iris-of-spring-meadows-ft.jpg","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":9656,"url":"https:\/\/sandiherron.com\/blog\/birdwatching-in-the-sunflower-garden\/","url_meta":{"origin":8843,"position":0},"title":"Birdwatching in the Sunflower Garden","author":"Sandi Herron.
