Those blue and white iris are only 2 years old in my bed.....not enough to share.

I can give you a small pot of the purple iris though. I have three.

Last year I (we) had the "big" Iris dig....Cat and Typ and Sally were here..
They took nice sections of each iris and I dug out the rest--amended the soil
and re-planted the bigger sections. many smaller roots were potted up in small pots
to share. Took a pile to work as well.

That is why my big purple iris is not going to bloom this year. It heaved so badly
from frost--and is now trying to grow roots and anchor back in.

This purple iris is from my uncle's garden. he died in 1991.
I dug these up to 'rescue" them....
