Please read and understand before buying.  

Iris are so easy to grow. I started growing because they were easy to grow in  about any well drained soil.  They are also deer and drought resistant. I am selling Iris from my garden. Pictures are from my garden

. I will include extras of my choice for those who buy more than 3, and the number of extras will be determined how many in the order.

This is a pre-sale, meaning I am selling and shipping starting in July, August or September. Iris need time to rest after blooming. I will ship in order of date purchased. If you have a preference as to when you want me to ship, please contact me, and I will try to accommodate you .

Shipping is $9.00 for the first Iris purchased and $1.00 shipping/handling for each additional . As the more Iris you buy climbs I will use USPS Flat Rate Medium $14, and Large $19 I think I can get atleast 25 Rhizomes in a Large depending on sizes of Rhizomes and extras I throw in.

I will not sell to anyone outside the USA because I tried and every time they were sent back. NO exception!! 

Please try to buy as many as you want and request shipping total . I will do my best to give you best price.  I will try my best to refund any extra shipping. Reminding me if great because I am older and can forget.  

I will send Iris labeled , trimmed, and dried. If what you buy is mistakenly mis labeled, I will guarantee to send you replacement. . I have been selling on ebay for many years , so I will be here if there is a problem.   I do not wash or bleach my Iris.  I will clean them the best  I can, but I found I cannot go to the extra steps and get them mailed in a timely manner.  I am in my 70s and its very hard to find help.  

• When to Plant Irises

  • Plant most irises in late summer to early fall, when nighttime temperatures remain between 40° and 50°F (4° and 10°C) or above. This gives them plenty of time to get established before the coming winter.
  • Tall bearded iris varieties are best planted closer to fall because they tend to go dormant in early to mid-summer.
  • If you receive bare rhizomes or irises in a container at some point earlier in the year, plant them as soon as possible. It?s better to get them in the ground rather than wait until the ?ideal? time.

  Where to Plant Irises

  Irises bloom best in full sun, meaning at least 6 to 8 hours of sunlight daily. They can tolerate as little as half a day of sun, but it?s not ideal. Without enough light, they won?t bloom well. Bearded irises must not be shaded out by other plants; many do best in a special bed.

  Provide well-draining, fertile, neutral to slightly acidic soil. Loosen the soil to 12 to 15 inches deep, then mix in compost or aged manure. Good drainage is critical: Irises prefer ?wet feet, but dry knees.? They will not tolerate wet soil in winter. Learn more about preparing the soil for planting and organic soil amendments.

  How to Plant Irises

  • Plant bare-root rhizomes (the thick stems) horizontally, with the top exposed and only the roots underground. In areas with particularly hot summers, set the rhizome just below the soil surface.
  • Dig a hole 10 inches in diameter and 4 inches deep. Make a ridge of soil down the middle and place the rhizome on the ridge, spreading the roots down both sides. Fill in the hole and firm it gently, leaving part of the rhizome and the foliage uncovered.
  • Plant singly or in groups of three, 1 to 2 feet apart, depending on the fully grown plant?s size.
  • Soak Siberian iris rhizomes in water overnight before planting, then set them 1 inch deep (2 inches if the soil is sandy) and 2 feet apart. Over a period of years, they will form clumps; divide when blooms get smaller and vigor declines.
  • Do not mulch around the rhizome, as this may encourage rot.
  • Water thoroughly.
