I've been told its a White Heron. If you want some, drop me a D-mail. I'll check your trade list and see if there is anything that perks my interest for a trade.
If it ends up being a give-away, postage will need to be paid via PayPal.

CLOSED: Spuria Iris - Available for trade or postage
I'm about to head to the backyard to get muddy digging up MORE spuria iris. (I swear these were never divided). I've got one more section and I'm DONE with the sardine like situation.
These are the ones that I pryed out of a small patch last night. Poor things!

Here is a TRADE OFFER to good Crocheters and Knitters:
Will send thread (or is it yarn), pattern, and the Spuria Iris if you would crochet/knit a hat and send it to me.
My daughter has wild hair and it seems like she gravitates to the newsboy cabbie type hats over all the other types of hats when she needs to get presentable in a hurry. I'm talking WILD hair.
Yes, I've tried to crochet and knit. My efforts were truely pathetic. Dismal in fact. I had a totally patient teacher but eventually I had to beg her to stop TRYING to teach me. It was obvious that I just couldn't grasp the concept.
D-mail me if you are interested in a trade of this type. Thanks

Here is the second batch.
pollyk brought up a good point in a D-mail to me.
Since I didn't buy these Spuria Iris, I can't be sure they are in fact White Heron.
So disclaimer: Spuria Iris may not be White Heron but a look alike.
OK - no more spuria iris rhizomes available unless you want the ones without the foliage.
I think I shipped out 8 boxes that were each maxed out just shy of 16oz. That is a lot of rhizomes! That doesn't count the massive amount that went to friends and coworkers.
Thanks everyone for adopting them and I hope you have great luck with them.
Dawn
Sorry I missed this offer.....
If you still have the ones without foliage, I'd take those!
I'm a scavenger at heart....
nilly -
Oh, I have PLENTY of the ones without foliage. Back in Aug when I dug up a batch and was passing them to others, I kept the Charlie Brown ones and planted them in the new bed. They were so pathetic looking. They are now actively sprouting. So I feel confident the ones without foliage will do just fine. You will get decent rhizomes. I keep the Charlie Brown ones for myself.
Just send me a D-mail with your shipping address and your e-mail and I'll send you a PayPal request. Its running $5.25 and I'll pack it just shy of 16oz.
Took alittle trial and error on the postage + PayPal fee. Kinda hurt to absorb part of the postage since I was giving these away to begin with. But $5.25 is the exact amount needed.
My biggest problem is I'm out of decent size boxes. A friend promised to come through with some shoe boxes. I even had to negotiate a trade with my daughter for one of her shoe boxes (she is a tough one). Need to dig through the cardboard recycle bin at work again.

It recieved mine today.. Wonderfully packed! Thank you .. thank you..
FYI !!!
If you are shipping priority through the post office, the boxes are free from them!!!!
The postage is according to the size of box not by weight.
Yes, the boxes are free but they are tiny. I prefer to get as much sent out in a package as possible.
If I was just sending two or three rhizomes it would work but I'm sending nearly a pound of rhizomes. A bigger box makes it easier to pack them better.
I had alot of rhizomes to find homes for and didn't want to dole them out a few at a time. I figure if I send TOO MUCH, the person can always share with friends, neighbors, and coworkers...
The price is the same whether you send 1 oz or 15.9oz. I try to get close to the 15.9oz.
Dawn
08214 - Boy was I wrong. Just mailed a package. The flat rate boxes are tiny but there were some much larger Priority Mail boxes available.
Thanks!

Try posting this in the Plant Trading Forum, it seems to get more traffic.

Maybe just a brief post with picture over there with a link back to this thread so you don't have to retype too much. ^_^
Oh, I've gotten plenty of D-mails for give-aways.
I think I'm close to finished with this.
Dawn
Guess there's plenty of traffic here too, good for you!
Mine arrived last week, so very generous, thank you! They are happily tucked into their new bed now.
Here's a link to the PP fee calculator I use, it'll help spare your brain cells next time ;-)
