Bearded Irises are just coming into flower but I have some potted ones here which could go in the ground carefully and they will transplant well.

Bearded iris like at least 5 hours sun a day and dry rather than wet growing situation. They are planted with their rhizomes sitting on top of the soil so they can sunbather.
Bearded Irises are completely frost resistant. Their foliage doesn't disappear completely but retreats to short leaves during the winter.

There are talls and dwarfs among this lot.

$10.00 a pot.
Thanks for looking.
Pickup is in Kuripuni.
P.S. Bare rooted rhizomes I plan to start selling before Christmas.

Price: $10

Who needs to pop across the ditch to Melbourne when you can enjoy Carterton?
Carterton Mayor Greg Lang has a vision of a creating a “Mini Melbourne”
in the central Wairarapa service town. Developers had already started building apartment complexes just in behind the High St, with plans for Melbourne-like laneways and artisan enclaves.
Comparisons between in the central Wairarapa service town and Australia’s ‘Garden City’ may seem farcical, but the Carterton mayor’s vision has merit, according to local business owners.
Do you think his idea is realistic?

Whether it's you or a partner, snoring isn't just an annoying noise. It impacts the health of the snorer, as well as the sleep quality of those around them.

Caused by the tissues of the throat relaxing and narrowing during sleep - snoring is a sign that a reduced amount of air is breathed in during sleep.

Snorex is a custom made device that holds the jaw forward, opening up the airway and stopping snoring. Made in Stokes Valley for 25 years, each Snorex is custom fitted for comfort and efficacy.

Trish Hina could be the greatest sportswoman you have never heard of.
A product of Naenae College, she later settled in Gisborne, where she was a social worker.
Her sporting CV includes representing New Zealand in touch, softball, rugby and rugby league.
Initially, her sporting success came in softball, playing for New Zealand and helping her club and Hutt Valley win numerous titles.
League was however her first love and in 2000 Hina was named MVP at the first women’s World Cup, where New Zealand beat Great Britain 26-4.
She was prominent in the Kiwi Ferns retaining the World Cup in 2005 and 2008.
In the 2008 defence, Hina was named MVP for a second time. In the final, New Zealand thrashed Australia 34-0, with Hina scoring two tries and kicking three conversions.
In 2010, she achieved arguably her greatest achievement by being selected to play for the Black Ferns at the World Cup.
She became the first female to win rugby and league World Cups.
Towards the end of her career, Hina was diagnosed with kidney disease and she was unable to fulfill her dream of playing Sevens at the Rio Olympics in 2016.
In 2015, she was inducted as a Hutt Valley Sports Awards legend.
