Munawar’s Zen (non-religious variety), gardening and a better way of Life - Blog

I couldn’t resist putting up these photos of my Japanese Iris Plant.  I planted these from a small $1.00 pot,  and 1.5 years later, they’ve grown large, luxurious, and gorgeous.  They’ve survived 2 Canadian winters (Toronto Winters…which is still Zone 5) just fine.

Due to their spikey leaves, I find they make a great contrast to round bushes and even colored plants like Russian Sage.
