Wild Flag


Wild-Flag, Iris setosa

I have been waiting for these all spring ...
They used to be everywhere around here, but now I only rarely see them.
This one was blooming just down the road ...
In fact, right next to the road!

  1. I love wild flags. They used to grow everywhere--I'm with Tom--what happened to them? They are so very lovely. If you find where they live, I'd love to snag a start.

    This is a truly love picture. Makes me homesick for our childhood.
