The only one you need is iris versicolor, the native "blue flag" iris.
We will be offering Spuria irises for sale. They will make great Mother's Day gifts and are a real bargain at $4 each. They will be available fresh and grower-direct. We can't guarantee varieties, although all will be named. They usually sell for 3 for $25. They grow in large clumps and bloom after the tall bearded varieties. They make great cut flowers, too.
I did plan on taking a few from my garden but the wind and rain basically "grounded" them. Will still attend the show - just without the iris's that I planned to show. This year they seem exceptional pretty - but also very heavy, Guess all the rain helped them along earlier.
