Now is the time to plant Bearded Iris rhizomes. They will need to be watered in this weather for a week or two but they are tough and will put roots down and consolidate themselves for next years flower show.

The Tall bearded irises pictured are:
Edith Wolford ( yellow and mauve one)
Precision ( ruffled purple/red)
Lady Friend ( Dark red/pink)
Sky and Sun ( blue with yellow beard)
Minnesota Mixed up Kid ( plum streaked one)
They come with instructions if you would like them. They will be trimmed and labelled and ready to go.
Bearded irises once established are drought resistant, couldn't care less about frosts, and love sunbathing their rhizomes on top of the soil.
Talk flower spikes emerge in Spring with fist sized bright coloured blooms on each stem coming out in succession.
Thanks for looking.
They are all $10 for each rhizome.
Pickup is in Kuripuni.

It was during the live televised name reveal for Ryman Healthcare’s new Cambridge village on TVNZ’s Breakfast that presenter Matty McClean happened upon Doug.
The resulting hilarious sequence of dry, but complimentary-to-Ryman, one-liners left the audience calling for Doug to have his own show. One fan even touted him as the next PM!
What viewers didn’t know, however, was that behind the droll exterior, Doug was dealing with the loss of his beloved wife Jan.

They also lay the most amazing eggs for baking!! They will lay regularly for many years and if cared for well will live for anywhere up to 20yrs!
My adult ducks free range our 6 acres and are treated with respect. Most were rescued from where they were dumped beside rivers and lakes, starving and hypothermic. Ducks need plenty of space to forage, and a good quantity of well-balanced feed to lay well. Like all ducks they need water to bathe, drink and generally enjoy - it also helps them to lay better.
Pot or pet please treat us humanely and with respect.
If you can no longer keep us please cull or rehome us DO NOT "release" aka abandon us in a local lake/river/waterway, it is cruel and unnecessary - it is also illegal.
My males/dads are Swedish Blue/Black. The females/mums are a bit of a mix - Pekin, Cayuga, Swedish, Appleyard Cross, Khaki Campbell and others.
$25 per female
$20 per male
