My World: La Fête de la St. Jean

Thought I'd put this up for fun.
I live in the province of Quebec, Canada and yesterday was La Fête de St. Jean, when my province celebrates. If you look at the flag of Quebec, you will see there is a blue Fleur de lys on it, he flower immortalized as the fleur-de-lys symbol of Quebec is not a lily, as many people believe, but Iris Versicolor. Normally on the 24th of June, you will find this iris blooming. In a week, it will be like they never were here.

I picked a small bouquet and took a pic before bringing them in. Thought I'd share ,

Maggie, I adore your fresh composition and I love these colors!

So I also like lilac, jacaranda and irises too. This is the time in L.A. when we get long dresses of thin silk. I've seen charcoal, pink and gray today. I still look at all the women waiting for the lilac colors I love!

Asher, since you love Lilacs, here are some Persian Lilacs from my bush, especially for you. Taken a few days ago. :)
