Received everything... some of the iris... the dwarf ones never greened up over the summer. I gave it til this spring. All the dwarf iris failed and the tiger and dutch iris rotted in the ground. I used plenty of mulch to protect over our harsh winters.
Contacted customer service, they sent different things to replace them. No problem there. Great company.
The yellow Iris I ordered is doing wonderful, highly recommend.
However,

One slight little problem.... I had marked each section with what they are.
And... they are not Purple Night Sky, Blue-Gold, Purple White, Blue Ruffled.
All of them are.... some kind of medium purple, run of the mill Iris! With the little yellow throat. I have photos if anyone wants to see. Just email me!
I have emailed photos to customerservice@bulbsdirect and just explained to them what I have explained here.
I want to know what kind of Iris this is and what it is called. I didn't ask for replacements but only to find out what it is and that they are sending this out instead of all the different ones I ordered.
I have now have approximately 54 Irises or less, I didn't count them all... that are all the same color! I don't even like this color.
If it wasn't for that, they would get a positive in a heartbeat. I will wait and see what they say and or if do.
I have a lot of work to do moving all of these to the "back" somewhere. It isn't just the money... it is the time and engery spent and the anticipation of seeing that Purple Night Sky. I really, really wanted to see that one.

Let me add that I paid $96.82 so I could have at least four different varieties.
I ended up with all the same variety; a variety they didn't even have listed on their website. |
