Very pretty Daryl; haven't seen any in Greeneville. But the Iris are in full bloom, in about a dozen different shades of beautiful color. The wild one however is a special favorite. Unfortunately, then bloom, then the heavy wind/rain follows and thus have a short span to admire. Greeneville hosts a very nice Iris Festival downtown in May.

It's the first one I have noticed in our woods, though from what I read I get the impression they are not that uncommon. Roger Mayhorn Compton Mt
