Irises






















They grow in our garden and their colour is the most intense purple I have ever seen.

They have stamens which look like little furry golden caterpillars.

They will last for just another day or two but when they start to fade they don't dry out like most flowers, they melt magically and dissolve into indigo ink.

They are weird, they are wonderful, and I love them.
