I never knew that was what they were called but looking at your photos, that's the kind of iris that grew in a round flower garden in the yard of my childhood home.

I tend to agree that maybe we do make too much trouble with those 'deeper' posts, when many of us are often just looking for those charming and interesting glimpses of a blogger's daily life. Especially when it's June and the garden is bursting with possibilities.

The bees are loving the lavender especially; I'm so glad we have access to this beautiful plant here in this cooler region. It tends not to survive over winter, but to buy pots of them and enjoy through the summer is a real boon. I might try to winter over this fall and see if that works out.<br /><br />I'm so glad you are enjoying The Scent of Water (and how lovely for FedEx to keep it dry as they deliver it). Isn't the writing of the book beautiful? The other book I have and love by Elizabeth Goudge is Pilgrim's Inn. It's part of a trilogy, but I only have the one copy. A beautiful story about home and the affect of beauty in our lives. I first heard of Elizabeth Goudge some years ago from Brenda at Coffee Tea Books and Me (blog).

Fed Ex tied it up in a plastic bag, so it was kept nice and dry. I have started reading it and have just felt like crying for the sheer beauty of her descriptive writing. Wow! Thanks for sharing this book in an earlier post of yours. Do you have other books of hers that you would recommend?<br /><br />Have a great weekend ~ FlowerLadyFlowerLady Lorrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17678852154334714784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017539925620642059.post-36023948009527997832020-06-19T11:14:08.880-06:002020-06-19T11:14:08.880-06:00But this is a post, Brenda, a glorious post!

And in June what could be better than garden glimpses--especially if they have blooms as pretty as yours are. <br /><br />"So I popped out to the garden and took a few photos."
