That is such a nice compliment! <br />The Walking Iris blooms appear near the tip of a leaf-like stalk and when it fades, the stalk gradually bends down to the ground and a new plantlet appears and takes root there. In course of time with each stalk rooting further and further from the mother plant, it does look like it is walking! <br />Yes, it is the heat of Summer which gets me down. In Mumbai, it is hot and humid in summer, definitely not a good combination for people (though the plants seem to love it!)Sunita Mohan https://www.blogger.com/profile/16395671437601246093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7433906806220848808.post-19961806317896786042014-05-26T00:11:45.098+05:302014-05-26T00:11:45.098+05:30Nice photos:)

I love the Walking Iris - and am wondering how it got its name !You say, Sunita, that summer is not your favourite season, is that due to the heat ? The lovely flowers must make it the most beautiful season !!Hoehoegrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00745640711509233722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7433906806220848808.post-54156286664843657772014-05-17T20:18:49.602+05:302014-05-17T20:18:49.602+05:30Hello Ela! :)

It is quite amusing to watch it take little 'strides' across my garden :)<br />The Heliconia is a real attention-grabber.

We don't have anything like that over here. At least it is starting to warm up here and it has been a great spring for flowering plants.Nick Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06431235724349702199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7433906806220848808.post-72518831918882959422014-05-16T03:29:15.446+05:302014-05-16T03:29:15.446+05:30Hello Sunita, I am so glad that you visited my blo...Hello Sunita, I am so glad that you visited my blog and left a comment. thank you! now I can feast on the eye candy that you have here.
