This is my third year ordering from Denise. Each time she has always been quite generous with her rhizomes, at times including more than one of those I've ordered, plus great bonuses! The rhizomes are very reasonably priced and arrive promptly and are always healthy. Denise is very friendly and a great email communicator, someone I'd love to meet some day. I love that she carries Bianca's! I do not hesitate to recommend Snowpeak Iris & Daylilies to all!

Received a very nice order of Siberian Irises from Denise, bonuses included too. Shipping and communication were very prompt. Have already placed an order in for bearded irises. I have also purchased bearded irises from Snowpeak thru a DG co-op in 2006, they have all done very well.

I am glad you are pleased with both the siberians and bearded iris. Being small I work very hard to do what is right for the customer.

Met Dee Stewart when I scheduled a visit to Snowpeak. A stranger, I got the king's welcome, a personal tour, and lessons! Was very impressed with how clean and tidy her garden was and how well everything was labeled. She personally digs every order, too. And she brings Bianco introductions from Italy to the USA.

She spent several sessions on the phone and emailed me promptly, giving excellent advice, as I agonized over my order. It arrived promptly, accurately, incredibly fresh, with good healthy sizes, some doubles, and so many bonuses I almost dropped my teeth. Many bonuses were ones I'd reluctantly cut from my list. All are doing very well. I'm planning to buy twice as many this year....as soon as I buy more land to plant them on.....

Thank you for the wonderful words, it means more than words can express. I love what I do 95% percent of the time, and enjoy sharing the knowledge with others. Plus I have met some trully wonderful people over the years.

I have ordered from this company twice this year, siberian iris in the spring and tb iris in the summer, and I couldn't be happier and can easily recommend them to anyone. The iris are extremely large and healthy, with some being close to clump size.

A really great experience with Denise and Snowpeak. We picked up several iris last week -- all of good size and with a truly generous (even by iris company standards) number of bonus iris included. I was delighted to be able to order such a fine selection of iris in the first place -- add fine service, good communication and an evident love of plants to that mix and I consider this a company I will order from again and again.

Ordered some dwarf iris from Denise. I had to delete one variety from my order, when the total with shipping, got too high for my budget.
When I opened the box, I not only saw very generous amounts of the ones I had ordered, but she even surprised me by including many starts of the variety that I had felt I needed to delete. She made my day!!
They were very healthy, and disease free. They were well-packed, and shipped very quickly.
I am very pleased with my order, and intend to order from her, again. She is very pleasant, friendly, and generous lady.
I went from being worried at first, that I was spending too much for what I was going to get, to opening my box, and feeling like a got a great bargain.
Thank you, Denise!!

This is my first online order of iris rhizomes and I am greatly pleased! Denise was very generous and sent two bonus iris along with my order of 10, not to mention the ones I ordered were more like two for the price of one, as many rhizomes as she sent. They were nice and healthy too, and at a reasonable price. They have a great selection and I had a hard time stopping at 10, so I just might go back and order again right away. I know if I ever need more irises, I will definitely go back to Snowpeak Iris and Daylilies. I highly recommend this company.

It must be hard to live up to ratings this good, but my first experience with Snowpeak was great. I okayed and received fabulous substitutes for a couple that were not available, and wonderful bonus plants. The packing was first rate and I've never received healthier looking plants, despite the past weeks terrible heat wave.

I can see why Snowpeak and Denise are so highly recommended!

Ordered 16 Siberian Iris this year for spring delivery. Prompt e-mails back confirming order and shipping date. When iris arrived all were large divisions (most 5+ fans, and one was 21 fans!) and well packed (water jel around roots, wrapped in wet paper towel, with everything inside a plastic bag secured with a rubber band). A couple of iris were sold out and substitutes included; but the subs were nice newer cultivars. Two bonus iris included as well. Only one small problem in that one of the iris's packaging broke and it arrived dried out. Reported this to Denise and she offerred to ship a replacement right away. I will definitely be ordered from Snowpeak again.

Placed another small order for 2 Siberians and 1 Japanese Iris. Even better service than first order. Even better packaging (double rubber bands securing the plastic bags making it all but impossible for the bag to come off). Very nice bonus Siberian included as well.

Placed another small order for 6 Japanese iris. Denise went out of her way to help me select these by sending e-mails with photos of all the JIs she had available. Again, superb packaging and large plants. And a very nice bonus iris as well.

First time ordering from Snowpeak Iris and Daylily. Received my order today and was VERY pleased. Well grown, healthy irises. Extremely generous with what is ordered and gifts included. Denise was very friendly and helpful and was able to schedule my shipment right when I wanted it. I love the selection here, some hard to find irises in the stock. I will be ordering again next year. By the way, I already have my entire order planted. ;-)

This is my second year ordering from Denise and I have been very pleased with the results. She was very generous with bonuses and extras, and while the rhizomes she sends tends to be a bit on the smaller size compared to some places they usually always take off and spread just as well as the larger rhizomes.

This is my second order of the year. I would like to add a rating that is BETTER than positive ! ! ! I just received my order for MTB's, SDB's, & IB's which were offered on sale. The rhizomes are clean, fresh and all of good size. As a matter of fact, most of them were HUGE. A couple of them had 5 or 6 increases showing. Plus, Denise added a bonus rhizome which she didn't have to do considering that they were already on sale. She answers e-mail very promptly, in my case within minutes. It doesn't get any better than this. Consider me a permanent customer.

I received my first order of daylilies from Snowpeak today. They were freshly dug, large, healthy, clean and well packed. There was included a sheet with culture notes and instructions. Not only did I receive extra fans of almost all of the cultivars, but she also sent free bonuses! I'm very much impressed by the quality of the product and by the personalized service; they are helpful and responsive to your every question. The company may be small, but they certainly can compete with the big boys. I'd give em an A+

I bought irises from Snowpeak. My experience with this nursery is excellent. I was informed right away when one variety which I have selected was having some late season rot and won't be available. I was given a choice to either get another replacement or refund for the plant. I chose the latter. One week later, I received the 13 plants that I ordered, plus 3 bonus plants, plus planting instructions, plus the refund check. I then noticed that the refunded amount was more than the price of the variety that wasn't available. What happened was that one of the iris I have bought had smaller rhizomes. As a result, Denise gave me a refund, even though she still included it in the irises that were sent to me. I am really impressed with the service.

P.S. Plants are freshly-dugged, large and in good condition. They are well-packaged, and the bonuses are generous too.
