Papyrus, and Elephant Ears
We offer both papyrus and elaphant ears. Both grow well in full shade. They are great plants to fill in a moist area. The elephant ears are fast spreaders, while the papyrus gets into clumps that can easily be split up.

Iris
We offer several types of Iris'.
Walking Iris: These are called walking because the bloom starts a new plant that "walks" away from the original plant. They bloom in the early spring and will grow across the United States. In the south, they can usually be left out during winter. On colder nights, you may want to bring them indoors. North of central North Carolina, you should bring them in during the winter, just to be safe.
Louisana Iris: Louisana iris bloom in the mid spring. They do not freeze back here in the south, but may farther north. They grow well in moist areas.
Bearded Iris: Bearded Iris' are very popular for their flowers. Like other iris, they bloom in the early- mid- spring. The flower lasts about 10 days. These will also grow in nearly full sun.
