The previous owners of our house were low-maintenance gardeners, so they had their landscaper put in tons of perennials that have sprouted up with no assistance from us, which is just fine with me. This is the first iris of the season. We also have tulips, pretty little purple flowers, bleeding heart-looking flowers and lots of greenery. Love it. We'll dig up a small swath of them to put in tomatoes, but most of it is ready made for us.
