Welcome to my Flower of the Day Challenge (FOTD). Please use your archived photos or find some old favorite photos if you like. Feel free to post every day or when you you feel like it.
This iris is from 2022. I’m starting to see hints of buds on my irises this year.


Don’t forget that my FOTD challenge accepts gardens, leaves and berries as well as flowers. To see entire list of accepted flowers, click here. Please do not submit photos of trees that don’t show colorful blooms or autumn colors. Leaf close ups are always welcome.
For the Love of Challenges

My favorite flower, and iris season here in New Jersey is so short!
We have a lovely iris garden in Montclair, called Presby Iris Gardens which I love to visit each year.

There is an iris garden (and farm) here. The gardens are 10 acres of planted over 300+ irisea. And mixed in with them are poppies, ranunculus, peonies, alliums, bushes, trees. It is amazing. 😀 😀
