In 2008 I started an Antique Iris Garden at the Middletown Cemetery.

As you start the spring cleaning of your garden and find you have a few extra iris please consider donating 3 to the Middletown Cemetery or I will trade you 3 for 3. Please contact me at 727-1942
Thank You

Mike
An “Antique Iris” must be more than 30 years old since it's introduction.
I have some pale yellow that are from 1849.

I need to make a correction to my last post. My pale yellow iris are “Flavescens” from 1813. Here is a link with photos of historic iris.
Enjoy
