Saturday

WHAT? Rain twice in the same week? We got 4/10's last night. I know it may be muddy this a.m., but since I have folks from all over picking up their iris orders, I will park right by the entrance, and hand them out. So if you show up just leave your vehicle ON the approach, unless it isn't that bad, can't really tell till I get there. We are open from 8-12 today. All the iris orders should be dug by Aug. 15th, be patient, we are right on schedule.
Check out or link to our Farm Festival on the top right.
This week the Mankato Free Press interviewed me for an article on our farm business, should be out within the next 2 weeks. =)

Dug and added 3 new Dianthus to the plant wagon "Sangria Splash" (so fragrant) 'Tiny Rubies" and "Zing Rose." Also added: Tradescantia"Concord Grape," Echinacea "Summer Sky," Veronica "Eveline." digging more today! They are big gallon size plants.

New IRIS

Just when you thought we had alot, we have added 140+ varieities of iris for next year.
If you ordered Splash of Raspberry, they are not available this year. I had 4 plants, but when they all bloomed 3 were something else that has not been identified. So only one was, with only 2 shoots, sorry.......=(.
And.....a few of you will not get Christina Diane, there were only a few to begin with, and just did not pump out the babies liked I had hoped, shame on her.

The rest so far seem available. We also have several varieities dug that you can purchase at our field market. Getting an interview with the Free Press today regarding our farm business, look for it in the paper!

If you are lookin for flowers I will cut you a fresh bouquet, otherwise you can purchase my bouquets at the food co-op in St. Peter. We are digging iris orders and appreciate you patience in waiting for your call or email.
