The Siberian Irises have done fine this year and this one is a favourite. I can't remember its name - I used to know all of my plants but have lost the tags over time. This one did survive its transplant from Saskatoon to Kaslo. It's been a tough year in the garden with all the rain and the bearded irises are suffering from fungal diseases. If we ever get to have a fire outside (impossible in all this wet), I do intend to burn some of that damaged foliage. The pots are rarely fertilized - I simply don't want to give them even more water. Consequently, they are not really blooming all that well. Hot crops are simply sitting around doing NOTHING and the peas, spinach, lettuce and green onions are relatively happy. It's drenching down as I write this. Happy Summer, everyone!
