These are Spring bulbs that once establishment put on a reliable show each year.
Low growing with grasslike leaves the flowers are like tiny upright bunches of grapes, rich deep blue in colour. The blue colour against yellow daffodils is amazing, They are the first of the Spring bulbs to come into flower.
Look great in a vase and are good for picking .
Look fabulous around trees, along pathway edges, in rockeries , or anywhere in your Spring garden. They do very well in pots too.
I have pictured some growing around my silver birches. These plants have weathered the hot dry Summer and bounced back into flower so they are hardy.
$6.50 per pot.
Pickup is in Kuripuni .
Thanks for looking.

Does anyone have a use for it for a succulent garden, bank retainer , garden feature etc.The fibrous covering over the trunk is marvellous for tearing off to line hanging baskets with instead of expensive sphagnum moss or basket liner.
Will need two strong people to carry it.

The plants in the ground are just beginning to move after their winter rest , so bare rooted rhizomes are not an option this month, but these potted ones could be slipped gently into a well drained sunny position in your garden and they won't know they've been moved.
The potted plants not in flower are the actual pots you would be buying..
$10.00 per pot.
All the irises are tall ones apart from one dwarf one , the one labelled Making Eyes. It’s the second to last one in the photos.
The pots are labelled and should be in the same order as the photos.
Pickup is in Kuripuni
Thanks for looking.
PS I had to delete some of the pics of potted plants as the size of all the photos was too big.
