I first saw the bud just YESterday!
Today it is rainy and overcast, and as there was NO color showing, I just knew I wouldn't have an open bloom when I got home from work.
Well. Surprise! Isn't it just the cutest most perfect little thing? Not more than 6 inches high!
End of April and I have my first tee tiny iris open!
DSis...what is the name? And for some perspective on size...See here.
And for something completely different...Wonderful Guy, Only Step Son, and I are headed to Kansas. I am not sure, but don't believe there are any internet cafes where we are going. And as I have not been thoughtful enough to plan my posts ahead...well, there may not be any Needles of Iron updates for a few days.
But I am sure I will have some smashing good stories and fun photos of fun and frivolity in Small Town, Kansas on my return.

Needles of Iron
Welcome...
...to my humble effort. Thanks for taking the time to stop by, and I hope you find something mildly interesting, slightly amusing, barely creative, or at the very least, not too terribly trite.

Such a cutie-baby iris! It could be 'Alpine Lake' - in my garden AL was lighter in the standards, though. I think it could also be 'tiny iris with a purple spot'... (or at least we can call it that!)
Gorgeous with the water droplets on there! Mine have yet to bloom, and they are covered with snow this morning. Along with the daffodils, tulips and grape hyacinth (thanks for educating me!).
I like the technical term "tiny iris with a purple spot!" It is lovely.
Gorgeous! Isn't it exciting to have some color in our landscape? Have a fun trip. :)
Whatever its name is, that is one pretty little iris (and nice photo too).
