| Welcome to Iris City Gardens. We grow Louisiana, Siberian and a number of virginica, pseudacorus, versicolor, laevigata and species crosses. We also have many antique and newer bearded iris and never-rust Garden Markers to identify your plants. We sell potted iris, daylilies, peonies, water lilies and other perennial plants here at the nursery. September 1 is the last day to order from this catalog and we no longer accept orders for this year (except, of course, for garden markers or the book). This web site will be updated for the 2012 season in early January and we begin taking orders for next year at that time. Meanwhile, you can Download the entire 2011 catalog in Adobe Acrobat format (without pictures) and browse the selections over the winter. Most will be in the 2012 catalog. We no longer print and mail a catalog. Rising printing and postage costs are partly to blame, but there is simply no comparison between a printed catalog and the photography on this web site. The printed catalog had only about 10% of the photos that are available on this site and the quality of those printed photos left much to be desired. If you're somewhat old fashioned, like we are, and want something to hold in your hand and mark up you can Download the entire catalog in Adobe Acrobat format (without pictures) and print it out. It's not a very large file and has all the text that would have been in a printed catalog. We don't have online ordering, but you can print out an Order Form, make your selections and mail us the form, fax it to 800-934-4747 or call your order in to 800-934-4747. (And next to growing iris, we like best to talk about them.) You can also Email your order in to us
This year we are introducing new Louisiana and Siberian beauties from our award-winning hybridizers, Heather and Bernard Pryor of Australia and Calvin Helsley and are pleased to introduce another of Dorman Haymon's Louisiana creations. The plants are pictured at our 2011 Introductions page and should be considered for your iris collection. This catalog lists approximately 620 varieties of iris, including 100 not listed in our 2010 catalog. We now grow over 1,500 different plants including over 1,000 iris, 240 daylilies, 120 peonies and many other perennials. We offer garden sales of pond plants, including water lilies, and potted varieties of iris, daylilies, peonies and other perennials for Spring planting. Otherwise, we ship bare-root bearded iris beginning mid-July and beardless iris starting in September. Our gardening year will begin with a booth at the annual Nashville Lawn and Garden Show, a plant lovers paradise in early March, coming just in time to save you from the winter blahs. This year it will be held March 4-7 and it's well worth a long drive to attend. There are lots of vendors selling great products and the gardens just have to be seen to be believed. In 2011 our gardens are open for visitors Wednesday through Sunday, 9 am until 4 pm (Central) from April 13 to June 26. (Other dates by appointment.) Click here for directions. We're about 40 miles southwest of Nashville. Come see us!
