A little garden flower show

Spring has arrived here in Kobe and the garden is in bloom.  My favorite, bearded iris, is not as abundant as in previous years, but still gorgeous.  These are lavender, but to the camera they are more blue.   The above iris is at the East corner of the house below the kitchen window. It was a good 3.5 feet tall and was starting to tip.



The same iris in in front of a hooked rug wall hanging from at least 25 years ago. 
This is a carpet ground cover called ajuba and it has a purple flower.  The yellow flowers are wild strawberries.
Since paving the parking lot, lots of long worms have crawled onto it, only to either get squished or dry up in the sun. 

Daffodils
A composite flower that's ball-shaped.

I don't know the name of this purple flower but it is abundant.

One of many types of moth, hanging on the door frame.

Then I found these Lilly of the Valley 
flowers nestled among its neighbors.

This composite flower has little bluish star-shaped blooms.  Don't know its name either.
