Welcome to my Flower of the Day Challenge (FOTD). During the winter months, please feel free to use your archives and find some old favorite photos.
Please feel free to post every day or when you you feel like it. Don’t forget that my FOTD challenge accepts gardens, leaves and berries as well as flowers.
A few years ago, This is an iris bouquet we bought.

I’ve gathered a list of challenges and their hosts. So if you know a challenge host, please direct them to my blog. Feel free to contact me anytime. I hope everyone will be able to use my lists.

The bouquet lasted several years? You must have a green thumb, maybe two. 👍

At the iris farm, they sell individual stalks and you can mix and match to make your own bouquet. So I got flowers I knew I would normally not photograph. I usually don’t photography the softer pastel colors.

How wonderful! I don’t think I’ve ever seen bearded iris sold at a florist’s shop over here. Did you get it from the farm?

We need to split them up and get them back in the sun. I’ve had bushes grow over them and they don’t get enough sun anymore in the spring time.
