    Blooms all summer long! We sell only live virus indexed "negative" plants not bulbs. Bulbs will carry any diseases the donor plant may have and with older plants the probability of that occurring is very high that's why we offer only lab tested culture grown, Virus indexed plants that are safe for your garden. Monroe is a yellow tiger striped iris with maroon dapples. This Iris is great freestanding or interplanted with other yellows or Maroons to give your garden color pop.
