Blooms

Yesterday morning I was delighted to open the front door and see my irises had bloomed.




You may remember these periwinkle colored ones from last year.







New magenta and white irises this year, thanks to the wonderful (and upcoming) Memorial Day Flower Sale at the church where I grew up.






With all of the rain we've received this spring, the irises may go on sale 1-2 weekends earlier. (They like to sell them while they're blooming so you know what color you're getting. If you're interested in irises let me know and I'll get you the details.)





Any local readers who would like to check out the sale for themselves, here's the scoop.





ANNUAL MEMORIAL WEEKEND FLOWER SALE


Friday, May 27 (10am--8pm), and Saturday, May 28 (8am--2pm)


Kauffman Mennonite Church (2 miles south of Manheim, along Rt. 72)




Large variety of perennials, bushes, trees, and some house plants.


***The plants are donated by the members of this church from their own yards, so you know you're getting hardy, well-established plants.




GREAT PRICES!


All proceeds will be donated to a missions organization.
