Beautiful

This is blooming in my front yard.  I planted this iris at least three years ago in another part of the yard and moved it this spring.  This is the first time it has every bloomed.  I didn’t even know what color it was.  I’m not sure why I picked the color when I bought it.  I’m so glad that I did, though.

Here it is again.  I’m not sure if you can tell how dark the purple is in these pictures.  It is almost black, it’s that dark.  It even has a beautiful scent.

 I think I may have to frame this and put it up on one of my very empty walls!
