Presby Memorial Iris Garden


上周末路过The Essex County Presby Memorial Iris Gardens  The bloom season is overbut, we still had the chance to visit.  it was established in 1927 to honor Frank H. Presby of Montclair, a leading horticulturalist and a founder of The American Iris Society. This living museum, listed on the State and National Registers of Historic Sites, offers a spectacular display of thousands of iris varieties to visitors from all over the world.

我身边只带Iphone, 就顺便拍了几张,阳光耀眼,效果还不错。Iris 中文鸢尾花,是从法国传过来的花种,花的颜色不艳丽,但典雅,花姿像女人穿着花皱裙摆,妖娆雍容·看着让我想起“茶花女”。
