It's been interesting and fun to see all the plants and flowers that the previous owners of our house planted.  Since we moved in, the irises have come up and started to bloom. I've counted three different colors, my favorite being this white one.  Lucky for me, they are planted in view of the kitchen window.   This was the first one to bloom and I couldn't resist taking photos of it.  The white is so crisp and clean.  I wanted to put a white background behind and shoot white on white but I had limited time and couldn't find anything bigger than a sheet of copy paper to use.   Sadly, Lainey shredded this beautiful bloom along with several that are planted up by the playhouse.
