In what was to be our 30th year of growing and sharing our irises with the world we have decided due to our advancing age and some health issues to retire. Over the past 29 years we have had the pleasure of hosting thousands of visitors to the display gardens from literally all over the world as well as being a host garden for the American Iris Society conventions and AIS Region 14 Spring Treks. Shipping several thousand rhizomes each year to customers both domestically and internationally in addition to the multiple thousands of potted iris from our greenhouses was a daunting effort each year. It was truly a labor of love! We do appreciate all the friends we made over our shared love of irises. In addition we appreciate all the AIS members who voted for our own iris creations (over 80!) and generously gave them awards. Thank you to all for the wonderful memories and for making our dream of making the world a more beautiful place with irises a reality. |
