Dear gardening friends,
I can hardly believe another growing season is here! After more than 20 years of tending these irises, the excitement of watching the first buds appear never gets old.
This year we have some beautiful new varieties I'm so proud to share with you — along with all the tried-and-true favorites our garden family has come to love. Every rhizome is hand-selected, carefully packed, and shipped with a little bit of our hearts.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Whether you've been with us from the beginning or this is your first order, you're part of our garden family now.
Happy planting!

Tidings features a blue-violet bi tone that is highlighted by a tawny blending of brown in its shoulders. This iris is a strong grower and very ruffled. In addition this stunning iris consistently offers three branches with 8-9 blossoms on each of its sturdy stiff stems and holds up to the inclement weather. Day time it looks more purple and evenings it looks more blue. Pictures are of same plant at different times. STUNNING!Grows to 36”, Mid bloom season.
A Note from Bonnie Iris rhizomes are best divided and transplanted after the plants finish blooming and have enough time to store nutrition in their roots. July through September is the best time to dig them up in Ohio. All Iris are grown on my farm and shipped from my home, bareroot with foliage and roots attached. BONUS rhizomes are always included at an average rate of 1 for every 5 purchased...my choice.
