    To Purchase Irises:-

    Our irises come direct to you from the grower. They come bare rooted, so are not supplied in pots. They are field grown to New Zealand conditions and are selected for hardiness and flowering ability. Supply is in early December, February and March. During this time the rhizomes are in a summer dormancy and they can tolerate being out of the ground for up to 4 weeks. Write, email, or telephone for a catalogue or order form. Payment with the order will ensure early delivery.

    We do not have card facility.
