Presby Iris Gardens in Peak Bloom This Week [Photos]

Check out these shots from the Essex County Presby Memorial Iris Gardens — and share your own!

The bloom season at Essex County Presby Memorial Iris Gardens runs from May 10 through June 5 — and right now the tall-bearded iris collection is in peak bloom, according to the garden's website. 

A Westfield mom visited Presby with her twins Tuesday and took tons of pictures. She shares some above where you can add your photos from the gardens.

The gardens are located 474 Upper Mountain Ave., in Montclair and are open and free to the public, Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
