They Must Had Really Loved Blue!

As I look at the flowers blooming in the side garden, I noticed something interesting. The previous owners of this house must have really loved blue!  Here are some bluebells.  They are quite dainty and pretty.  Behind the bluebells are some iris plants, I haven't seen these irises bloom at all, and this is my 2nd spring here.
On the other side of the side garden are these other Blue bearded irises.  These are so pretty, too bad the blooms don't last that long.  These are the only ones that seem to bud like clockwork.
Okay, this is not quite blue, but a purple iris.  Pretty nonetheless.
And blue spiderwort.  There are a lot of spiderworts growing all over the property.  These things multiply like crazy!  One of my tasks in the future is to tackle the side garden, I want to add some different perennials to the mix.  Especially some blooms that aren't blue.  I just don't have the heart to pull all the iris plants, even the ones that haven't bloomed...I'm curious to see if they ever will bloom in the future.
