i had this weird dream last night that i looked outside, and my back "yard," which was much bigger and nicer than it is in reality, was filled with all these GIANT burgundy and white irises. On stems 3' - 6' tall! There were purple ones too, but smaller.
In the dream i was talking to my mom on the phone, and i basically hung up on her so i could go take pictures of the irises before dark. But when i did, there were worms (?) crawling up the leaves, and i knew that the irises were doomed.

i hold y'all responsible for this.

(color combination of the 6' irises, minus the yellow:)
