Irises: Siberian and species 2, 1 by boojum

I do. Mostly historic clumps and a few newer ones. But the newer ones are mostly unhappy in the bed I have them in. TBs are my least favorite iris though. They move around so I lose their names; they don't bloom with each other (I grow everything for color combos); and they die easily if too wet (always too wet here). I started collecting historics because they are so much more reliable, but they never can replace my love for beardless. When I joined DG, I was shocked that there was no separate category for beardless iris. I didn't realize that everyone didn't know about them (being deep in siberian land here in New England). That's why I post madly in June!
