    I really did enjoy the virtual tour of Dr. Amir’s garden. He has a lot of beautiful flowers on show at the moment.

    The Day Lilies are gorgeous, and I love the huge Gardenia bloom. I would not have guessed that Tall beard Iris would grow there, or Scilla. That is amazing.

  2. Beautiful flowers. It must be a joy to walk around in so much beauty.

  3. Awesome flowers. I especially liked that small Tabebuia, already flowering so well and with such an intense coloration! Also, I had no idea bearded iris could do well in the plains. I do not think I have ever seen one in my travels on the other side of the border in Delhi or the Indian part of Punjab.
