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.

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.
This little iris hugs the ground. I've kept mine in a big pot where it is very happy. It grows less than a hand width high.
You will have at least three little rhizomes to plant. They will be bare rooted.
Bearded Iris like the soil drier rather than soggy, enjoy the sun and are frost … View moreThis little iris hugs the ground. I've kept mine in a big pot where it is very happy. It grows less than a hand width high.

One of the biggest factors in getting a good night’s sleep is the comfort of your mattress. If you regularly wake up with muscle or joint stiffness, interrupted sleep, or your mattress is making more noise than usual then it's time to replace and refresh.
Experts recommend a change of mattress every 8-10 years, so if you haven't changed your mattress within those years then now is a good time to do so.
Investing in your dream sleep can pay a huge factor for your health, and once you’ve found the right mattress the thought of replacing it will be the last thing on your mind.
A mattress is a long-term hold, not a life-long hold.

These hardy little plants like it dry rather than soggy and are the first to flower in the Spring. Look great in a rockery or on a border edge and do well in pots too.
Thanks for looking.

All five for $35.00
This iris has been potted up since last season so there is quite a number of rhizomes in it. It had two lovely flower stalks which have just finished.
It will enjoy being able to stretch its legs once in the ground.
Name: Irwell Ace. A NZ bred iris, bred by the late Ron Busch.

Hi Neighbours, long shot here:
I’m short on ceiling insulation to finish a construction job (total maths fail… 🤦♀️). I’m after 5 bags of Mammoth ceiling insulation panels if you have any leftovers in the shed?
Happy to pay cash and collect…

These bearded irises grow to about a metre high with spectacular stalks with up to 12 large fist sized flowers up the stalk coming out in sequence. The life force coming from one thumb sized rhizome is phenomenal.
They are easy care, don't mind being frosted one bit, and love to sunbathe their rhizomes on top of the soil which anchor themselves firm roots.
Picture left to right are 'Carl and Sissy', 'Floral Act', 'Tink' ,'Silverado' ' Irwell Ace'.
Thanks for looking.
The plants will be bare rooted .
