Beautiful Iris Faye. I love them too. I wish they bloomed all summer!!!!

Here is my one lone Iris. It is a pretty peach color. Still several more buds on the stalk. Last year I had one yellow one bloom. Don't know what the deal is!!! Thought maybe it was because they were around trees, but I see them blooming their heads off around other peoples trees. ~sigh~ One bed I know is different colors that I brought from our house in town when we moved. Planted them last spring. No buds on them either.

That 's the problem with Maples. They are a soft wood and split out real easily. I love them, but between the suckers and being so soft, I don't know if they are worth it.
