Today is the first day of the Chelsea Flower Show. I know this as I've done some logistics and ferrying for Clare Balding to get from Chelsea by train to Henley in Arden for a Ramblings recording this afternoon. But I digress. As back home in somerset my iris are getting into full swing. Look at that blue spiral of Empress if India (I believe), like an ice cream cone.
Or the blushing shyness of the iris below, which is Kent Pride. Also in the garden is Howard Weed and Black Swan. All are flowering better than ever - last years long dry and very hot summer seems to have made them fair pick up and burst forth. I love em' as Claude Monet might say.....
