At Dunedin Botanic Garden on 07 May we wandered around the pond where we found lovely irises in bloom, adding blue accents among the autumn colours presented by other flora. Again I was reminded of the many iris photo posts published by Ted & Ellen Jennings from the Lowcountry in South Carolina.
Here’s a 2018 photo-post by Ted that illustrates what I mean.

It is so interesting to see your Iris with the autumn backdrop, Liz! The red lacy Japanese Maple leaves are a nice complement.
Thanks for sharing our Iris posts, another flower that is hard to pass by without photographing! Ted says he doesn’t like shooting flowers, but his history says otherwise 🤣
