Nursery contributed plant descriptions

These are those wonderful iris you see in floral displays. They are perfect cut flowers and I LOVE EM! It really is tragic that these are not more common. The do best in a sunny area. They multiply very well and have flowered for me year after year with no care. Zones 6-10 (maybe winter hardy to zone 5 if you plant them in a protected spot...in colder zones, plant in the spring) Bulbs are 6/7 cm around
