F.A.Q

Many of my irises this year are eaches, so order early.  I'm hoping I have listed all the irises I have available.  I have listed some that were just purchased last year that haven't bloomed yet.  If I find that I received an incorrect iris, I will change it on the website and refund $$ if you've already ordered.  Because I am still a "novice" at identifying which fans are bloom fans and which are not, as the bloom season gets closer, I may increase some of my available rhizomes.
Thank you for your business.

You may order via PayPal or by check/money order.  I strongly encourage you to send me a message with the rhizome varieties you would like so I can be reasonably certain I have enough of those varieties available.  Because our Oregon coast weather is both wet and highly variable (hail on the ground in the morning and bright sunshine an hour later), some varieties may give me more or less available rhizomes, so please message with your order. Iris are "harvested" after blooming, so I will begin in July and finish in September.  Local pickup (and possibly local delivery) by prior arrangement only.

Absolutely!  Select the rhizomes you want, send me a message letting me know that you want to pay by check.  Send check to J. Shank, 93577 Green Acres Ln, Coos Bay, OR 97420.  I will let you know by email when I receive your check.

I have been reworking many of my iris beds, therefore many of my irises will not be available for sale this year.   Because this is more of a pleasure business (that is for my pleasure & enjoyment), instead of a production business, I will rarely have more than 10 rhizomes available per variety (I generally have only one plant of each variety).  Most will be in the 1 to 5 rhizome range.  When the available rhizomes of a variety are sold, it will show as "out of stock."  

Because of my age (76) and some physical challenges, when I have received the maximum number of orders I think I can handle, I will close the store, so order early. I am not a "certified" agricultural garden, so if your state requires that I won't be able to ship to you.   All shipping is done via USPS Flat Rate shipping.
If you are "desperate" to get one of my irises that is listed as "out of stock", please email me, I may be able to get one rhizome for you.

Within certain limits.  I will guarantee that my rhizomes will be dug and shipped between mid July and mid September, that they will have been treated and checked prior to shipping to ensure the rhizomes are healthy.  I ship only via Priority Mail, so all rhizomes should be received within 5 days.  I will generally ship Monday - Wednesday of each week to get plants to you before the weekend.  Because I can't control what happens once received by purchasers, I will reimburse/replace only if the iris or irises are "dead on receipt".  Date of receipt, image of rhizomes will be required in that situation.  Please contact me if your iris appears to be the wrong variety (when it blooms) and I will strive to send the correct variety or reimburse the purchase price (again, an image of the bloom is needed)
