This is a couple of bearded iris called "Pink Kitten" - another stem from the bordering
iris in the rose garden, with a touch of art-work, its another to be made into a jigsaw puzzle.
I had to cut this stem because Dick was heading towards it with the spray unit [fungus spray,
we don't spray the aphid because we don't want to kill all the good guys],
and the gale-force winds we had the day before had knocked the stem half over, the spray unit
would have gone right over the freshly opened blooms - can't have that eh!

Thanks for all the lovely comments for yesterday's rose!
