Blue Siberian Irises and First Knock-Out Rose

The blue flowers are Siberian Irises. My husband found one on the roadside years ago. We planted it at our former home and then brought a few to Fairwinds. Now there are many. The lovely pink-red plant in the background is my very first Knock-Out Rose. I love it. The full size will be about 3-4 feet high and wide, I believe. Currently the rose bush is surrounded by Violets which seed themselves yearly and add an abundance of purples to our gardens in the Spring. We have a dedicated rose garden, but this Knock-Out Rose in our front garden is supposedly long blooming and easy care. Pleasant.
