If you want any bog iris I have extra yellow and blue. I must admit though that I love my mini cat-tails best, they're so cute, and not the invasive mess their larger cousins are. Maybe you can find a good place to buy water plants in your area. Whatever you do don't overplant it, bog plants seem to multiply well and you'll be sorry if they get to jammed up in the tub. I say this because my blue iris is planted in a wine barrel and it looks like solid rhysomes because I haven't divided it in so long.
Here is a picture of a yellow iris bloom from early Spring.
