Good point, gem, about the messy leaves on the iris. I do love them (but not as much as the bunnies) and keep trying to grow them, but so far I haven't had to worry about the leaves getting long before they get eaten... I am going to put them on my 'order' list though for next year and try again with chicken wire or some such deterrent.

Here's a pic of my tulipa humilis (about 6 inches tall) blooming with the early mid-season daffs. First time I have grown them--and protected them by planting them in sinken plastic pots with the hardware cloth over the tops...still lost several to the deer... Any way, very cute and subtle and a nice touch for a rock garden. A little lost, though, where I placed them. Next time I'll get it right!

Bright and sunny day here. Makes the garden sparkle.
