Irises

Irises... Amazingly beautiful and immensely attractive. Small and big, bright and dull...

 

When I was a kid we had a small iris bush in our garden and I always waited to see the small blue flowers... And always was looking for yellow wild ones I can find growing around the lake... Later I figured out these two kinds were so simple and unsophisticated but the not all irises are like that.

Irises are generally Spring flowers that are blooming late Spring and early Summer. So this is the best time to go to the Botanic Garden and... enjoy these lovely colorful flowers...

Denver Botanic Garden has dozens of different types. Some of them look relatively simple, but the real gems are bearded irises... They are absolutely incredible and gorgeous...
