Bearded Iris rhizomes...good to plant now....named varieties

Joan from Masterton District

It's been so hot up until now that the thought of getting outside and digging up irises was put off until now.
Plenty of time for the rhizomes to put some roots down and get ready to hunker down for the winter in preparation for the spectacular show in Spring and Summer.
Bearded Irises are easy to grow. Come up year after year with metre high stalks with fist sized blooms. They like at least 5 hours sun a day. Very drought tolerant once established. Don't mind the frosts at all. Plant them with roots in the soil and rhizome on top of the soil so it can sunbathe.

The rhizomes will be fresh dug. $10 each.

Thanks for looking.
Pickup is in Kuripuni.
$10 for each good sized healthy rhizome.

What word sums up 2024, neighbours?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

If 2020 was the year of lockdowns, banana bread, and WFH (work from home)....

In one word, how would you define 2024?

We're excited to see what you come up with!
