Seen at Schreiner's Iris Gardens - No. 2

The spikes of color that are lupine are among my favorite sights to see at Schreiner's. Here are a few of them as the focus of some of the hundreds of photos that I took on Monday. There are iris and delphinium here, too.

    I keep going back and forth, so I can't decide! I also love that shade of pale pink. Gorgeous photos again Lynette.

    Beautiful gardens. If we would ever dry out, I could get a few shots of my flowers in the back yard. They at least love the rain.
