We will be splitting many iris. Ours are mostly tall bearded (some names). Would be interested in trading for other tall bearded (with or without name) and prefer large solid colour blooms. Please no purple..........have lots.
Thanks

Hello! I'd love to have some of these if you have any left. I've been growing my purple iris patch and my purple garden and need more irises. I can trade handmade, organic herbal soaps, lotions, salves, toiletries or soy candles. I can make a soy candle in the scent you specify if you'd like. Please just let me know. Thanks!

How many iris varieties do you grow?
Q

I have about 30 different ones (mostly TB, a couple IB/BB), mostly heirlooms. This wasn't a good season for my irises - very wet here all summer. I'll be interested to see how they bloom next year. My hands-down favorite is 'Striped Butterfly,' but there are many others I enjoy too. My iris interest has been competing with my daylily interest (and my dozen + peonies and many other perennials) - on a suburban 65x100 lot, I've about maxed myself out. I'm trying to talk my husband into a larger lot (not a larger HOUSE, just a bigger piece of LAND - I've got my priorities!). Laurel
