Heirloom Iris

I'm going to start with this one this year, and as I work my way through the beds, I'll have some more for trading.

I won't be ready to send these out until the week of the 14th, but thought I'd go ahead and see if anyone is interested in trading for a few rhizomes.

I'm looking for perennials, daylilies,or other iris if I don't have it. I'm easy, you might have something I didn't know I wanted!

hi melissa, don't have alot of irises, but lots of perennials. i would be in interested in several trades. belinda

Very nice.I will e-mail you soon what I have to trade. Would prefer more than a couple. maybe we could do multiple trade?? Thanks pot

Melissa, what do you most need, sun or shade perennials? Anything in particular you're looking for?

I would love to trade have cannas and , coral vine, intense passiflor vine. black mondo grass , green mondo grass lmk

Marlatt and potogold, email me, and I'll figure out what I'm going to have available, we can do multiple trades, that is easy enough to do. :-)

Kimberly, I have mostly sun. I'm not really "looking" for anything in particular... I have so few perennials besides Daylilies, hostas, Iris and Roses that I"m just trying to broaden my horizons and put more color in the beds.

emh48, email me, I'm willing to trade for about anything that will work in Zone 6.

Hi Melissa,

I just gave away alot !!!......but have lots more

Would you like some Northern Sea Oats seedlings? By the time you're ready to divide, they'd be good sized, I think.

Hey Melissa
I would LOVE some I'll e-mail you soon!
Thanks
Donna

GW, I don't have sea oats, so I guess that would be ok, something different.. and I'm trying to diversify right? LOL

Are they like the sea oats that grow at the ocean?

Donna, I'll add the iris to your list. :-)

Yes, I think they are. They're GORGEOUS in the fall garden, so colorful and graceful. Here's some pics: http://plantsdatabase.com/go/798/index.html

I would like to trade too if you have any left. Please email me.

Melissa,
I can't dig up the perennials we talked about yet either so after the 14th is GREAT with me too because I am still planting my roses.It's not so much planting,it's digging with all of the rocks underground..I think our farmhouse is built on rocks too just like You said.

PLUS we got 7 Baby Raccoons last Night I have to keep an eye on etc.etc...NO I don't have enough to do :-))
TTYL,
Brigitte

OK, to any of you that I haven't sent Iris to yet, email me. Put IRIS in the subject line, so I can look through my trash folder and spot them quickly.... a lot of stuff gets sent there anymore, I must have some wierd rule set up. Anyway...
summer school is winding down, and I'd like to have some of these going to new homes in the next few weeks or so.

I'm more than happy to trade for unknown Iris too, they don't always have to have a name to be pretty! :-)

I also have some white that should be fine if planted this fall, and some mixed that should bloom if planted this fall.
