Out in the Garden



Summer has finally arrived here in Minneapolis, and for that we are thankful!

The grass is growing non-stop between rain storms and after all the plants in the garden staying dormant an extra 3 weeks, with a little sun things are popping out. 

This week we started seeing all kinds of color, including 2 new iris purchased at the Iris Anderson Gardens last season up in Forest Lake. They turned out to be real show-stoppers!

The first was a double-bloom with multiple colors called, "Carnival Song" and the other a deep purple, large and ruffly-edged one called, "Tuxedo."
