About the event
Our family will be digging 1/3 of our beardless iris collection. We retain 2 rhizomes of each variety for replanting and make the rest available for others to enjoy.
Each rhizome is meticulously trimmed, labeled, cleaned, and diapered by loving hands. After preparing website preorders for pickup and shipment, we select rhizomes to donate to the Eastern North Carolina Iris Society and its members.
Contact heather@broleyhomestead.com for information about joining the Eastern North Carolina Iris Society and volunteering for iris harvest in a member garden this year.
