I had a few new blooms for today.

1) Both Sally (purple with white streaks on the falls) *and* Gita's (blue with white/pale blue standards) irises have now bloomed--pretty!
2) Peony is nearly open--yay! Last year the peonies seemed like they were open for only a few days. Hopefully they will last longer this spring.
3) My wisteria is open--yay! When I got it last year, it was a little thing with only a couple blossoms--I'm pleased with how it's done.
4) A second type of geranium (also from Gita last year) is blooming. Seq, any idea what kind this is?
5) Another view of the wisteria. I'm thinking I need to get some color of iris besides purple to go in front of it--the two shades of purple kind of blend in with each other. What color iris do people think would be best to set off the purples?
