Les iris et les œillets de la cour des senteurs
There was a riot of irises and carnations at the scents courtyard last weekend! Of course, both flowers are used in perfumery hence their presence here!
Bien sûr, ces deux fleurs sont utilisées en parfumerie, d'où leur présence ici.
So many people are posting photos of iris now, and while mine are up, they're nowhere near blooming. Soon, perhaps. Meanwhile, I'll enjoy these. Thanks! K
The purple irises are special. I love them, but have never had much success in growing irises, so I don't grown them any more.
I saw your question about capital and Capitol. A capital is the city that is the political headquarters of a state. A Capitol is the building in the capital that holds the legislature. Now that you and I know that, we are among 50 total.

Exquisite flowers, gorgeous colors!! I love them! Thanks for sharing -- as always! Have a great weekend, Ciel!
Such lovely shades, Ciel. Just beautiful.
These are beautiful, Ciel! Ours are just starting to come out.
I feel their aroma.

The Iris is such a complex flower. I love them. I have a friend who has been posting photos of his Iris on Facebook almost every day.
Lovely shots. I love the scent of Iris---sometimes and some kinds. MB
And Nathalie has poppies today. More reasons to visit France.
I've heard of gardens for the blind in the US but I'm not sure I've ever visited one.
Gorgeous collection of flowers not to be missed. Thanks for sharing!
Perfection.

I've been admiring the irises around my house, but none of them look quite as glorious as these.
OH! Soooo gorgeous! I can almost smell the aroma.
Your pics are gorgeous and as to the reason you find these flowers here...well, it makes scents to me!
Still not walking about? Get well, will you! :)

Gorgeous! I am still trying to find some nice flower before summer, but in vain...
Irises are my favorite ruffly flower...
