Bursting!

This morning we had a very hard frost. By 9am I was out in the garden grubbing about on my knees with the camera and phone trying to capture this rather lovely winter colour combination, with added frosting. It's Iris foetidissima, an evergreen with unspectacular flowers before these fabulous seed pods. I've no idea where it came from but it's tenacious and grows under trees so it's welcome to stay. 

The extra is a mess around with the colour of the same plant.
