They are looking positively splended this year. They are growing like mad and are green! green! green! The weather has been perfect. It has also been warmer than usual with no ghastly cold spells. As a result, I've already discovered 2 flower stalks within the base of a couple of irises. The bulge can be felt. This is most unusual. The stalks normally start at the very end of April, the 28th to 30th. Everything has been running early this year.
Each day, when I first step out into the yard, look up into the blue sky and begin to feel the warmth of the sun, I think: "God, it feels so good to be alive!" What a gift!
