Irises

Whilst cleaning the pool area yesterday, I’d realised the steps up to it had started to become overtaken by the beautiful, elegant blue irises that grow on either side, so I decided I needed to tidy them up.

Meanwhile Brian was going to cut the slope, as the grass had really grown since we did it about a week ago. However he does know to leave the meadow areas I’m cultivating.

For my job I started by just removing the long grass and weeds, and then started to remove some of the irises. They were so well rooted in though, I did need a helping hand. I was really pleased with how it was looking, and have replanted the irises we removed further down the slope. Hopefully they will take.
