Thanks, Suzette! Spring takes a bit longer for our northern climes, but it’s well worth it when it arrives. Hope to see an ocean animal poem from you this weekend. 🙂

Interesting! I would think it would be reversed due to our latitudes. Siberian iris are the only iris blooming now. The larger ones are still down the road.
