I've got heads!

For weeks I've been having major envy of a woman I've never met, but who has a garden with lots of irises already blooming. She lives a few blocks from me, and I pass her garden every morning on my way to work. But when we got home from crown last weekend I finally saw a stem with a soon-to-be flower on it. I went out and counted last night and I have 13 iris heads waiting to bloom. I'm so happy. I was worried, between the late planting and the transplant trauma I wouldn't get any irises this year. So far, they look like they will all be purple.
In other garden news, I think I'm going to move all the Easter lilies aver to the little plot near the fence. I really want them away from the food plants. I think I'll plant something colorful around them, maybe snap dragons

looking for dance volunteers for demo at Collegium

There's going to be some demonstration dances done at Collegium Occidentalis on April 25th.

If you would like to be part of the demo, please leave a comment and I'll forward the info to Vyncent who's doing the actual organization. The proposed demonstration dances are Fiamma d'Amore, Amoroso, Bizzaria d'Amore, Gracca Amoroso, Contrapasso, and either Fain I Would or Stingo.

The dance demonstration will take place during dinner, and there will be dancing for everyone afterwards.

Musicians are also welcome. Again, please leave a comment and I'll forward it to Geoffery Matthias who is organizing the musicians.

edited to add: Not to frighten anyone away, but this is performance dance. Just you and your partner in front of an audience (who might just be talking and eating dinner and paying no attention whatsoever).
