Originally meant to be a private fishing residence for a wealthy man in #Sumter, South Carolina, the Swan Lake #Iris #Gardens are full of carefully manicured Japanese irises.
Hamilton Carr Bland bequested the land to the city upon his death, which made the property a public park.#SwanLakeIrisGardens #FlowersOfMastodon #Bloomscrolling #JapaneseIris #WhiteIris #IrisFlower #DesktopBackground

Originally the property of wealthy businessman and avid fisherman Hamilton Carr Bland, this is now the public Swan Lake Iris Gardens.
Bland originally hoped to spice up his property by planting exotic iris bulbs, however, none bloomed. Furious, he ordered the gardener to throw the expensive bulbs into the swamp.
The next year the swamp blossomed with dramatic Japanese iris flowers.
Bland also collected all seven species of swans, and eventually bequested the land, as well as more land gifted to him that was made part of the gardens, to the city of Sumter, South Carolina to keep up as a public park.
