Anise hyssop and irises in a big red tub

Anise hyssop and divided iris to be planted today!

I got the Anise Hyssop in the ground (from the local buy nothing group), but the ground is so parched and hard I need to run the sprinkler before more digging.

A close-up of a red flowering currant bloom. It is a cluster of bright pink 5 petal flowers. A little green leaves emerging on brown stems

This one is just starting to open. It’s a cluster of pink flowers hanging down, sort of like a cluster of grapes.

In my shade garden. #NativePlans red flowering currants in bloom now:
