Iris On My Nightstand



Pin It

The first purple iris flowers are sitting pretty in a deep cobalt blue bowl next to my bed. I don't wanna miss seeing them in the morning, that's why I put them on the pink nightstand. Purple, pink and orange - do you think that Spring is finally gonna come? A big hug to my friends in Italy (ciao Anna, Laura, Serena and Eva!) who are confronted with unusually cold weather and snow. And a humble thank you to all my other friends, who still visited even though I haven't had the time to get up to date with all that's happening in blogoland!

  1. Iris is a beautiful flower :)
    We are so lucky to have it in the garden ... but we are working very to get it to bloom.
    Have moved it two times, and believe we have found the solution.
    It will not have as much nourishment and care.
    Do smaching on your bedside table!

    1. Yes, narcissus and iris are very difficult to grow. But tulips and hyacinths are very easy to have from bulbs :)

    1. Oh, Stephanie, thanks! I'm so happy that you noticed the butterfly, because it's one of my favorite decorations ever (even if just a few years ago I wouldn't have liked it at all)!

    1. Thanks, Patty, I tried many times to grow potted iris of my own but it's difficult, so I'm enjoying these little beauties!

    1. Thank you, Mette, I made the 3 stacking lucite tables myself (with a little help) and they also serve as coffee tables near the couch or end tables on the balcony - so they are a clever small space solution, indeed :)

    1. At least for me, it's difficult to grow them... but it's never difficult to look at them! Did you know that there are also yellow iris? And white, of course :)

    2. I did see white at florist's, but never got to see yellow. I will keep my eyes wide open for them :)

    3. Well, I only saw the yellow ones in the botanical garden. If I catch some yellow iris this spring, I'll take pictures for you :)
