Siberian Iris Gardens

I live in Arizona and we do not have many local sources for Siberian Iris, ergo the web search. Our summers are so hot for so long that normal shipping times do not apply as the intense heat can cook bareroot plants. I communicated with Polly and explained I needed a very late in the season shipment. Polly's plant availabilty was low when I called so we agreed on a specific amount of money and Polly selected plants from those remaining at end of season. Polly waited until snow was falling there (still quite hot here) and sent the plants, all of which appear healthy, professionally packaged and now safely planted in their new home. On a side note, I seem to be Polly's first Arizona customer and promised pictures of the progress next spring. I rarely get this professional and personalized service from mail order companies, and highly recommend this site.

One of the nicest places I've ever done business with. The irises are gorgeous, their communications are thorough and delightful. And, as noted, they're not only generous with the bonuses but the plants are clearly chosen in light of the tastes the buyer has demonstrated. I don't know how they do it but I'm glad they do!

Polly is amazing. I just got my order, and every single iris was big and healthy, literally right out of the box. They were packed carefully, had great big, undamaged root structures and lush green fans. I can't wait to see them bloom. Without waxing poetic for too long, it's also worth mentioning that my wife and I included Siberian Iris Gardens in our wedding registry, and Polly has been spectacular. From prompt, personal responses to my emails to nailing the date I asked her to ship to the day to the extra irises she included as wedding gifts, I've been blown away. I get the sense that Polly just really loves giving people irises, and the business is just an way to make that happen for her. I'll definitely be back next year. Now I all I need to do is put in new garden beds!

Received my Irises today from Siberian Iris,will order from her again, plants all came in nice and healthy...Loved the bonus plants, sure will be ordering from Polly again...her packing was great also.. Thanks again Polly

Posted on May 12, 2010, updated May 13, 2011 Posted on April 30, 2009, updated May 12, 2010 I ordered 12 plants from Siberian Iris Gardens in March and requested the order this week. The order arrived today in perfect shape. The packing was great, as the plants arrived nice and damp and the size of the fibrous roots of the Siberians was very generous and the rhizomes on the Ensata was also a better clump than I have normally received from other vendors in the past. I had wonderful communication with them about the order immediately after I sent them the order. I was immediately informed of the unavailability of one plant on my order and updates about shipping. A perfect experience of online plant ordering from Siberian Iris Gardens. The website is very clear, with good information and excellent photographs. I am most pleased. A "Be Back" for sure. Thanks, Patti

Posted on April 24, 2010, updated May 11, 2011 I received the plants I ordered today and was very pleased with their confition and root mass. I was also pleased to recieve some bonus plants that were very much appreciated. Great plants, great service - highly recomended to any interested in siberian iris.

Like others who have posted here before me, I recently had an excellent experience with Siberian Iris Gardens. I knew I wanted some beardless iris for a periennial border and found this nursery here in the Watchdog. Before I ordered I emailed Polly with a few questions which she answered very quickly and helped me clarify my order. I requested a variety of colors, heights, and bloom times and that's exactly what I got. They sent 22 iris (that includes 4 "bonus" plants) in 21 varieties. In fact, the only duplicate was an unusual yellow and white one, which is perfect for me. The price was excellent; the plants were heathly, carefully wrapped and labelled; the planting information provided is useful and well-written; and they came exactly when I wanted. Couldn't ask for a better mailorder nursery experience.

Posted on June 9, 2010, updated October 4, 2010 Siberian Iris Gardens offers an amazing variety of beardless iris. The beautiful shades of color are endless, the product-quality is 'the best', and it is a real pleasure to do business with these wonderful people. Each order and each customer is given a great amount of personal attention. Any inquiries are [personally] answered in a very timely matter. I really can't praise Siberian Iris gardens enough......buy from them!! R. Stauffer

Posted on October 16, 2009, updated October 2, 2010 Just received my first Japanese Irises from Siberian Iris Gardens. The plants are all very healthy, neatly packaged, with name tags attached. Polly has out done herself once again with providing excellent service, communication, and plants. She also sent me some companion plants to use in my flowerbeds and gardens. The company included culture, planting instructions, care, and so forth in sheet protectors. Something I plan on keeping in my gardening journal to fall back on when I need to remember tips for growing these plants and getting the most out of them. I will be at the front of the line to order plants from her in 2010!!! 5 stars all the way around when getting plants from Siberian Iris Gardens. You just can't go wrong with this company! Try it, you too will be a repeat customer.

received my first order and it won't be the last. Plants arrived in great shape, well packed, nice and moist. Excellent communication and great customer service. . Thanks again for a very positive experience. Highly recommended!

Shipping was very quick. Plants arrived in great shape, well packed, nice and moist. Excellent communication, great customer service, and wonderful bonus plants. Thanks again for a very positive experience. Highly recommended!

Excellent communications and concern for plants arriving in good condition. Plants are health and vigorous with ample number of fans. Excellent person to do business with. Thank you +++++.

I got my first order and it was exceptional in every way!! The plants were healthy, moist and packed professionally. Add are instructions and history of the plants done as binder folders and laminated. That is one touch I really loved , not to mention all the bonus plants!!! ^_^ I will be a repeat buyer for sure! Thank you for a easy and wonderful transaction Polly!!

These folks are sweethearts. This is not a corporate, no personality web business. Polly sent extra amazing plants because one species was not ready at send time. She sent me a handwritten letter! They followed up to see it everything went well. I absolutely recommend SIG. You couldn't work with nicer people.

I repeat what debilu stated, the iris's I received were well wrapped and labeled. The bonus gifts were a nice touch. And the plant information provided in plastic sleeves is much appreciated. Great experience!!

Wow! What a nice surprise to open up the package of iris to find everything wrapped and labeled beautifully, and the plastic sleeves of instructions and descriptions was a special added touch. I wasn't expecting bonus plants either. Definitely one of the best mail order experiences I've had. Thank you!

Polly was wonderful to deal with. My Iris arrived in excellent condition with clear plant descriptions and planting instruction. Really a nice purchasing experience - I will buy from them again:-)

This was my first order with Siberian. Everything was as smooth as possible and the plants arrived in perfect condition - expertly packed, well-hydrated and healthy-looking. Detailed planting and care instructions included. Looks like I'll be the weak link in the chain! Will certainly be back again.

Posted on April 11, 2009, updated April 22, 2010 I just recieved my Iris. WOW What great plants. Really big divisions and wet as well. The box got here in one day. Polly is a packing demon. I will definatly order again, they are so friendly and really make the customer feel like Number1

I ordered three Siberian Iris plants and one Iris versicolor plant from Siberian Iris Gardens online. I was informed that one of the irises I ordered had just sold out, but that they would substitute another variety for no extra charge even though the substituted variety was more expensive that the one for which it was substituted. The order was sent as soon as they received my PayPal payment. It arrived three days after it was sent. What a surprise! Included in the order were three bonus Siberian Irises and two bonus Japanese Irises, more than the number of irises I ordered!! All of the irises were of great size and in great shape. On top of that, four plastic encased sheets were included. One had the invoice printed on one side and and a description of each iris variety in the order on the other side. The other three sheets covered preparing for irises, growing Siberian Irises, and growing Japanese, Bog, Water and Species Beardless Irises. What fantastic service and irises! When I order beardless irises again, it will be from Siberian Iris Gardens!!

Wish there was a SUPER POSITVE to mark.. I found Polly by accident and was scared to order not knowing for sure what I 'd get..But after reading ALL the reviews I decieded to give it a try. And being so LATE, she was sold out of a lot, but worked with me to get the look I'm after..VERY HELPFUL! What a great company to order from...like the others said the packing, the instructions in the plastic seelves WOW!! The plants are large healthy divisions meticulously wrapped so there was no incidence of drying out during transit. Polly also took time to hand write a very kind note, and surprised me with some extras, she had found out we had been in the floods, and the gift of kindness was a true surprise!! This is a company I will order from repeatedly, the only trick will being getting my order in before she sells out. An absolutely outstanding job Polly!!!

Great experience with a wonderful lady! Many extra, and all healthy! Thank You ! Your friend in the garden, Nicky

WOW!! Even after reading all the positive comments left for Siberian Iris Gardens, I was incredulous upon receiving this package. I knew the package was on its way due to Polly's excellent communications. The plants are large healthy divisions meticulously wrapped so there was no incidence of drying out during transit. She included the invoice, plant descriptions and cultural requirements in durable plastic sleeves that can go directly into a binder. This is a company I will order from repeatedly, the only trick being getting my order in before she sells out. An absolutely outstanding job by Polly!!!

I ordered my first Japanese Iris from this company earlier this summer. The owner immediately confirmed my order and pointed out that the plants would be shipped later in the season as stated on their website. I took the opportunity to correspond with her regarding my goals for the plants as I was still looking for another variety to add to a grouping. The owner considered my requirements and sent photos of two other plants, not on her website that I might want to consider. One really apealed to me, so I chose that one. Polly wrote back and said that she would send those plants (3 of them) as a bonus. When the order arrived she actually sent both of the suggested varieties as a bonus. What generosity. Polly also followed up my purchase by email to see if I had any questions. I asked her some specific questions regarding cultivation and we exchanged several mails where she offered much appreciated advice. This is exemplary service and value and I will be sure to order from them again.

This was such a positive experience: Wonderful plants, perfectly packaged, supplemented with several exciting bonuses, and accompanied by plastic-encased pages of planting and growing instructions. They arrived looking perfect even after traveling from New York to California during a somewhat unexpected mid-September heat wave.

I had a great experience ordering from Siberian Iris Gardens. The plants I received were healthy and large and Polly is a pleasure to deal with. She sent not one but several bonus plants along with my order. I wouldn't hesitate to order again.

I ordered twenty unnamed Siberians - received 24+ plants that were healthy, generously sized and very moist. A lot of care went into packing my order; I was also sent two emails with cultural and planting instructions. A great source for Siberian Iris.

From Angela, I was overjoyed at the wonderful service and care in preparation, and the personal interest. We are just not used to such superb service and really rank this company far above all the rest. It should be the top rated in Dave's Garden! It would be a great world if others were like Polly and her husband.

Received my first order from this company today and wish I would have know about Siberian Iris Gardens sooner. I can only say that I was totally pleased. The size of the plants were huge, packing was wonderful. I also received 3 very nice bonus plants. Also included were culture and planting instructions enclosed in plastic protectors. I will definitely order from this company again. Definitely one of the better places I have ordered Siberian irises from.

This company is a great example of the benefits of ordering from a specialist. Polly gave me friendly and expert advice. The plants came at the ideal time for planting, and were large and in great shape. The documentation was the best I've ever seen, from ANY mail order firm (plants, books, widgets, whatever). The planting and care instructions are clear and detailed, the invoice readable, and there's a list of the plants with names, type, and description which is perfect for my permanent files. Well done!

Received my Siberians today and was totally pleased. Well packed, large healthy plants, generous bonus plants and great descriptive and cultural information included. Would definitely recommend!

Siberian Iris Gardens always send heathy, large sized plants, everytime I recieve them! Friendly, fast, honest service! Goes the extra mile to see that you are happy with your plants! I've been dealing with this company for 2 years now and have added them to my favorites list! Thank you! Sincerely, Sandy Reebel

Thank you for the feedback Sandy.

Sandy and I have had a professional relationship even before I started my internet business, and her comments on my shipping and care of the plants is partly what convinced me to sell over the internet. I so appreciate her.

Very nice big healthy plants! More then I could ever had expected. Will buy from this company again for sure!! The packing was perfect and not one plant looked like it would need some TLC. Like I have received from big catalog companies. Check this site out. You will not be disappointed.

This was a dream order. I was asked to provide an assortment of irises. I included some species and water/ bog irises. I don't think too many people are familiar with some of them yet, and it was a chance to show someone how well they will do in the average garden border.

I truly had tons of fun filling this order.

Thank you so much.

Very healthy plants of a generous size. I am very pleased with all my plants. I plan on dealing with this company again. I would encourage anyone looking for irises to contact this company.

I appreciate the feedback, and will love to have your return business.
