THE RUMBLING SOUNDS OF MOTHER NATURE THUNDERING are grumbling in the Kansas skies this evening. Not sure if a heftier storm will rush in or not. As we were shopping today over in Manhattan, the thunderous clouds were building up with color themes of a Mariposa Skies Iris.
HUBBY had an afternoon barber appointment and while he was with the barber, I went across the street to look at the plants for sell in the Dillon Grocery Store parking lot. Strolling through the aisles of beautiful flowers and plants made for a pleasant time while waiting for my Husband to finish up his appointment.
We went for an iced tea, HOME DEPOT to look for more Baby Gem Boxwoods and then to the grocery store for almond milk and boxed lettuce. Short stay in Manhattan and then back HOME we went. Only a few drops of rain fell on the windshield of the car as I drove the distance. Dry the rest of the way HOME.
No storm. Peaceful evening.
On the HOME FRONT, our Irises are blooming. Not this year, but next year perhaps we will be artistic with the large flowerbed. The like Irises will be grouped together in circles of about 6 bulbs like it is done at the KSU Gardens in Manhattan. For now, we have single bulbs in rows.
Irises are what I yearn for each year.
I pray they last an entire month or more.
