I think all my irises have given up the ghost. They come up and look really healthy, but don’t bloom any more. So sad. They are one of my favorite flowers and the ones I have came from my aunt and hubby’s aunt.

And I’ve about given up the ghost, too. I’m so sleepy. I didn’t sleep well last night and had a really short nap this afternoon full of dreams that made me tired. LOL! See ya tomorrow! It’ll start warming up tomorrow. Not horribly, though. *whew*

Dang, that sucks. Have the bulbs multiplied to the point they’re crowded? If so, they won’t bloom. All you have to do is dig some up and plant them in another spot.

I need to do that with the gorgeous white irises Dad sent several years ago. Their leaves are up but there isn’t a single bud stem. They usually start blooming on my birthday. Another variety Dad sent are blooming now. The other two will do their thing soon.
Others that were planted by Hubby’s mom and aunt are starting to bloom now. Like the daffodils, different varieties bloom at different times.

Get some good sleep tonight. No weird dreams. :-)
Catch ya tomorrow.
