I am once again engaged in the Sisyphean task of cleaning out Dekalb County's drainage canal that runs through my back yard. (This thing was built ~60 years ago and constantly fills up with silt/dirt, flooding my back yard and sometimes basement. It's a fucking nightmare.)

It's my first season with Irises and I'm pleasantly surprised to see blooms. I'm looking forward to these forming clusters and filling in a bit, for more visual impact. 🌱
