Louisiana Iris, potted , in flower. SOLD Another listed.)
Louisiana irises just love wet feet. I have mine growing beside a stream and others sitting in dishes of water.
This iris is potted, and is in flower at the moment. The other rhizome has a flower bud on it ready to open soon and I'm not sure whether it is the same maroon colour or another colour. Surprise?
This iris is called 'Perfect Match'. Deep mauve with goldy centre radiating onto each petal. A large bloom the size of your hand.
Louisiana irises open out flat like a plate unlike the bearded irises which have a round form.
$14.50 with the pot.
Thanks for looking.
Pickup is in Kuripuni.
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)
