These are my wild Iris blooming. I call them my tippy toe Iris though. I had one small patch years ago and while I have watched and watched I have never seen any of them make a pod, I have them now scattered here there and yonder all over two acre.

They called the tippy toe iris because I believe the iris decided to set out for greener pastures since the front hill was getting kinda crowded. I swear I went to sleep one night and the Iris took it's leaves reached down, pulled itself out by the roots and tippy toed all across the yard til it found spots it liked.

Now I have too tippy toe around because I have tons of leaves all over that I leave for natural mulch for them and I have to watch where I put my feet so I don't step on them. :)
