Flea market Siberian

Concord, NH(Zone 5a)

Went to a flea market this morning with hubby. Didnt see a thing excpet 2 plants as we were staring to leave. They wernt in bllom. The lady said they were white siberian iris and they were 2 bucks each. They were huge plants so I took the chance.

Uh oh...looks like the start of what might become a full blown addiction...lol! Believe me, I'm speaking from personal experience. Here's a couple of good links to help you get the most out of your Siberian irises:

Thanks so much! I think my addicition is to Dave's Garden! Period! But all the beautiful pics I keep seeing. I am really partial to ireses and daylilies! Just got to get going on the latter as I only have ditch lillies right now. But for 4 bucks how could i pass it up! plus i am doing a white/peach colored bed around the bird bath my kids got for my birthday

I've never ordered from them personally, and I couldn't find anything about them in the Garden Watchdog. However, I have purchased from the following vendors, and found them to give excellent plants:
