Grape... I mean Purple Iris~


Started two new watercolors...
My mom & dad had Iris planted around their flag pole~
They do not care to grow for me so I visit friends gardens!


When I was a child, my favorite soda was Grape Nehi &
Always thought that purple Iris smelled just like Grape Nehi!
They had yellow Iris with rust & maroon tones~
I called them Rootbeer! Yep, I thought they smelled like it.

I try not to liken the smell of flowers to sugary snacks anymore!
Still have silly songs & rhymes run through my head at times...
I might grow up~ probably not!

Hope your Monday is off to a wonderful start!
