Bearded Iris rhizomes 'Lilac Lustre'
I have left a carton of rhizomes of the Tall Bearded Iris 'LILAC LUSTRE' at my back door at 36 Waltons Ave. in Kuripuni , Masterton. If anyone would like them please come and help yourself from the carton of rhizomes there.
Lilac Lustre has shimmering tones of Mauve, lilac and fawn. Large ruffled blooms on a metre high spike. Flowers come out in succession. Gives good increase. A reliable bloomer.
Bloom time is now and there are some flowers in a bucket for you to see and take. This is not really the time to be uprooting the irises as it is in the middle of the bloom season, but this particular one is hardy enough to survive.
Bearded iris are very easy to grow . At least 5 hours sun a day and good drainage. They are frost hardy. They don't die down completely in the winter but they do rest with short leaves so you still know where they are in the garden. .
First in first served. Sorry I can't take phone calls.
Thanks for looking.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
