The Iris border

Nearly 5 years ago we moved into what we thought was a temporary rental while we looked for a new home in town.


The house had been owned by a retired couple who filled their days creating a show level garden. They had planted nearly every inch in flowers creating a beautiful enclosed cottage garden.


Times changed and they were unable to maintain the section. It was sold ...first to a member of our church who let us among others use if for a transition between homes. Then by God's grace we became the caretakers of the garden. Lots has changed to give the children some grass adn to allow me to grwo some veges... but much of the garden is still as it was planted. In late spring it comes into its own as a wonderland of color.
