It's only a bit chilly here but the cold hurts my joints. I stay inside.
What you gardening in the winter?
What are you producing inside?

Splitting the irises, then digging up some of the lawn/grass and planting irises there instead.
I am very very muddy right now.

Nice! Picture frame? Or some other sort of frame? Nice! You were super productive! Good job!
Splitting irises? I'm not sure what that is. I didn't think that they came out until the spring though? I like them. They're very pretty flowers.
Good job on being productive with your gardening! I'm glad you're getting stuff done.
Time for a nice hot bath then, huh?

Well, they spread by rhizome, right? So if you leave them too many years, they kind of crowd each other out and none of them are quite as hardy because they're competing with each other. So when they go dormant in the cold season (yes, they won't grow well until Spring, you had that right), you can dig up the massive entangled mess of roots, separate them out, and then replant them further apart. Then a few years later you can do the same again... .and gradually have the whole place taken over with pretty flowers instead of frustrating, needs-mowing grass. Plus, it means you can just get 2 or 3 plants of any given color or variety, and a few years later they're ready to split so you can swap the neat colors with other people who are also ready to split theirs, and soon you have a profusion of types of irises, a whole panoply of heritage varieties and variegated colors and tiny half-wild ones and huge double-petaled and everything in between. I love it so much

One heart shaped frame for my fan shrine where I've hung some small pictures on and a Chrismas lanyard with lil lights ~ and another small frame to hang lil shelves on that we're going to use to keep our extra keys for like the mailbox and the garage. Also good for hanging notes and memos on c:
And I've hung up some of my lolita dresses on the coat racks and it looks so pretty, they're hanging right over my bed now. I've always wanted to display them like that cx
