Gorgeous rhizomes, Kay. What a generous gift! You're going to have to dig some big holes for those roots.

Renee,
I was very surprised at the number of bonuses and the size of each one. Quite an order. And you are right. some planting is in order.

I think it is Rita that loves Rockytop, & I can see why. Those are gorgeous, & to get so many bonuses is amazing. they look so very healthy!

ngraham,
Rita ordered from them in 2010 and posted pictures this year. Well, I am easily enabled, so I decided to order the ones I loved that she had posted pictures of.

And I will order from him again. He allows you to tell him which plants you might like as bonuses, and sends those (and he sent others too.)

I've known Phil Williams (Rockytop's owner) for several years now. We belong to the same iris club and I must say, he is one of he nicest and funniest guys you'll ever meet.
And he is so generous with his bonus iris. Those roots are a result of years of soil amendments being added to his garden. If your ever in the Nashville, Tn area, his garden is located south in Eagleville, TN. And when his irises are blooming, so will be the several hundred peonies he grows (peonies are not for sale). Just another bonus he offers.

I had been to the website, but had no idea it was so close to me. I will have to make a trip there next year!

I visited the web page, and I like it that there are so many different hybridizers introducing their irises with him. So much variety!

Our Iris club gives gift certificate to his gardens every year as prizes for our show winners...I sent in my order late so I just ordered the end of the year grab bag deal...Now I cant wait to see what I get!

As the above picture show, he sends beautiful plants.
