Not patchwork related!!

 This is what I nearly walked into when out pest monitoring yesterday!! These naughty bees have left home and made themselves a new nest in one of our young avocados.'


Isn't this lovely, a nearly black iris. Even after living here for 3 years we are discovering new plants 'popping' up.

  2. Your iris is a lovely colour Barb. That's one of the fun things about moving house - seeing what comes up!!
    Bees are fascinating how they swarm. Check this one out too. http://365daysofstitchingfarmgirl.blogspot.co.nz/2012/12/day-225-of-365.html
