Greetings,
Lately I have received some messages about the Iris Gardens.
We have been closed for a few years now.
Thank you everyone who is continuing to grow your Irises and Peonies!
Enjoy their beauty!

It’s time to be weeding around your Iris so you can look for this guy - the ‘Iris Borer’. Your clue is a slimy leaf. If it’s made it to the rhizome, the whole rhizome must be removed. We squash the worm!

Greetings!
Just wanted to share that even though some blooms are opening, not enough of them are open for good viewing. A few more days....

We’ve been getting questions about our hours and the whole virus situation.
We will open and welcome you here during daylight hours as more blooms open.
The flowers are beautiful and we want to share them with you. Please come over and enjoy our setting.
We respect social distancing.
We will update as more blooms open.
