The flowers are extremely small and I thought they would get larger with TLC I broke up some and replanted them 2 years ago but the flowers are still small. They are an early bloomer and each plant sends up 6-8 stems of flowers. Their pale blue color (the picture is a little too lavander) and small size completely make me think my first thought (tossing them) is best but I see at dg that heirloom iris are popular. I'd hate to destroy them and then find out there are people who would like them. Kay |
