Iris Purchase Instructions

  • We are usually in the garden but if not we have order forms set near the opening of the garden for you to fill out.  Each iris has a name tag near the plant. You may leave your payment with your order form in the secured mail box that is located near the entrance of the garden. 

Caring For Your Irises

  • Irises bloom best with full sun and little water
