I've been gifted many iris tubers--and my last garden I called a friendship garden, just for the reason. The main garden as one entered the yard was filled with Japanese Iris and daisies and gladiolus and bearded iris. I think all of these plants grow in an abundance and when then get passed on, some at church sales, some at community sales to support libraries and other groups, and some to neighbors. This purple iris is more traditional. They grow prolifically and smell divine--I belief I've read that the iris scent is used in many perfumes. Wednesday, May 14, 2008
