Lupines and Lilies and Irises

Oops I missed posting Thursday!
Here is Friday's and may you have a wonderful weekend.

Does anyone know why some of my text
keeps getting highlighted?
It isn't something I ever do on purpose!


The lupines and lilies are blooming now, there
are irises behind the lilies and you can see they are done.
Scroll down to see photos of the irises in bloom.


The lilies are in full bloom and I am really enjoying them.
The naturism isn't blooming yet - they are  growing in my broken chiminea.


I planted this lavender in front of the lily hoping it 
will fill in the space in front a bit. 


I truly love this iris although I do seek a few that I've owned before.
No names, I've never known their names.
One was tall and slender, a paler version
of this one and it smells of grape koolaid.  
The other is one that grew wild around our town in MI,
 I assume they were the remnants of old farms - a yellow
and bronze iris that one was half as tall. 


This was before the lilies started blooming. 



The rain has really produced lush growth since this photo
was taken.




I managed to get a photo of them all blooming together!
