It's one of the earliest-blooming plants in the garden!
At first glance, it appears to be an iris flower that has broken-off, and is laying on the ground.
Au contraire!
The dwarf iris (K.Hodgkin) is firmly grounded.
(fingers crossed that the majority of them emerge this year!)
October marked the second year these flowers were planted.
(CG Jr helped dig & plant a few -he even named the one between the rocks lining the sidewalk Rocky)
With continued success in the next few weeks, we are already looking forward to planting even more this fall!
