I decided to publish some of the pictures I took before the cold came.
I'm scared to think of what everything is going to look like this week.

Byzantine gladiolus with elephant ears in the background.

My first Iris: a Louisiana Iris, Jeri

An Azalea from the Mobile Botanical Gardens sale, Emelia Rose.
