a beautiful new orange iris for my garden.

i have to say that my clever daughter has turned me on to the color orange. i was never a fan before, except for maybe a tasteful pumpkin or muted curry shade. her penchant for retinal burning hot safety orange has opened my eyes to all of orange's more vivid shades, especially tangerine.

You are too funny!
Beautiful iris! My son loves this joke and the fact you put it with his favorite color!

What an amazing colour. Such gorgeous images too. I foresee some orange beads coming up!
