Things I see on the way to the barn

 Pink bottlebrush Look at how tiny this new leaf is.  One of my special iris plants that I got from Pleasants Valley Iris Farm. Another one of the special irises. This rose  looks fairly common but the fragrance is spectacular.Same for this one. These roses were on this property when we moved here in 1999. We moved them to their current locations. They don't get much TLC, but hang in there. Several of the roses also have branches from rootstock growing up around them. I can easily identify those branches when they are flowering, but I hate to cut them off when they are so pretty.Yarrow.Amaryllis (not a flower).
