White, Reblooming I Think!

Early morning rising today as I will attend the local Gardenaires Plant Sale. This group of local ladies sells propagated plants from their own gardens. The Gardenaires Garden Club was formed 55 years ago here in Winfield, Kansas. Proceeds from the sale are used to support many local charity projects including the library garden, a local park peace garden, main street beautification project, habitat for humanity and donations for the local food bank.
I purchase a re-blooming white Iris, I think? That's what the label said anyway. Also in the tray are three ground cover ginger plants. I was the only male in the group of buyers and sellers at a local residence on the outskirts of town. I was happy about the purchases as I was considering purchasing the ginger (Asarum canadese?)from a native plant company anyway.
I leave you with a early morning shot of Sambucus 'Black Lace'.
