Iris & Crocus

Mid seventies today finally got out in the garden.
Beside the driveway these Iris reticulata 'Pixie' are blooming along side 'Barr's Purple' Tommasinianus Crocus

Had tea on the porch (no scones) and felt something tickling my ear. First tick of the season, it seems rather unfair that we have suffered all this cold & snow & not killed off these pests!
